Analysis

The most recent figure for carbon intensity of gdp in Estonia is 0.3865 kg CO2e per constant 2015 US$ of GDP, measured in 2024. That is the lowest value across all 35 years on record.

That represents a change of down 7.1% on the previous year and down 61.1% over ten years.

Over the whole period, carbon intensity of gdp in Estonia peaked at 2.73 kg CO2e per constant 2015 US$ of GDP in 1990 and was at its lowest, 0.3865 kg CO2e per constant 2015 US$ of GDP, in 2024.

That places Estonia 70th out of 199 countries with data for 2024, putting it in the middle of the range.

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