Analysis

Luxembourg recorded 0.0037 Mt CO2e for methane (ch4) emissions from transport (energy) in 2024.

Compared with earlier readings it is down 27.5% over ten years.

Over the whole period, methane (ch4) emissions from transport (energy) in Luxembourg peaked at 0.0277 Mt CO2e in 1994 and was at its lowest, 0.0036 Mt CO2e, in 2020.

That places Luxembourg 150th out of 194 countries with data for 2024, putting it in the bottom quarter.

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