Methane (CH4) emissions from Industrial Combustion (Energy) in Bhutan, 1970–2024
Source: EDGAR (Emissions Database for Global Atmospheric Research) Community GHG Database, Joint Research Centre (JRC) - European Commission. Measured in Mt CO2e.
Analysis
Bhutan recorded 0.0032 Mt CO2e for methane (ch4) emissions from industrial combustion (energy) in 2024.
That represents a change of up 6.7% over ten years.
Over the whole period, methane (ch4) emissions from industrial combustion (energy) in Bhutan peaked at 0.0045 Mt CO2e in 1994 and was at its lowest, 0 Mt CO2e, in 1970.
That places Bhutan 110th out of 193 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.

About this data
A measure of annual emissions of methane (CH4), one of the six Kyoto greenhouse gases (GHG), from industrial combustion (subsector of the energy sector) including IPCC 2006 code 1.A.2 Manufacturing Industries and Construction. The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
