Analysis

Sudan recorded 0.0038 Mt CO2e for methane (ch4) emissions from power industry (energy) in 2024.

The figure is up 52.0% over ten years.

Over the whole period, methane (ch4) emissions from power industry (energy) in Sudan peaked at 0.0059 Mt CO2e in 2021 and was at its lowest, 0.0001 Mt CO2e, in 1970.

That places Sudan 106th out of 194 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.

A measure of annual emissions of methane (CH4), one of the six Kyoto greenhouse gases (GHG), from electricity and heat generation (subsector of the energy sector) including IPCC 2006 code 1.A.1.a. The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
