Analysis

Cape Verde recorded 0.2903 kg CO2e per constant 2015 US$ of GDP for carbon intensity of gdp in 2024.

Compared with earlier readings it is down 2.9% on the previous year and down 35.0% over ten years.

Over the whole period, carbon intensity of gdp in Cape Verde peaked at 1.14 kg CO2e per constant 2015 US$ of GDP in 1980 and was at its lowest, 0.1203 kg CO2e per constant 2015 US$ of GDP, in 1999.

Cape Verde ranks 100th of 199 countries on this measure, in the middle of the range.

The series is highly variable year to year, so single readings are best treated with caution.
