Analysis
In 2024, methane (ch4) emissions from transport (energy) in Seychelles stood at 0.0033 Mt CO2e.
That represents a change of up 3.1% on the previous year and up 13.8% over ten years.
Over the whole period, methane (ch4) emissions from transport (energy) in Seychelles peaked at 0.0041 Mt CO2e in 2017 and was at its lowest, 0.0001 Mt CO2e, in 1970.
Seychelles ranks 151st of 194 countries on this measure, in the bottom quarter.
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 the transportation sector (subsector of the energy sector) including IPCC 2006 codes 1.A.3.a Civil Aviation, 1.A.3.b_noRES Road Transportation no resuspension, 1.A.3.c Railways, 1.A.3.d Water-borne Navigation, 1.A.3.e Other Transportation. The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
