Analysis
The most recent figure for methane (ch4) emissions (total) excluding lulucf in Turkmenistan is 97.6%, measured in 2024.
That represents a change of down 1.7% on the previous year and down 6.4% over ten years.
Over the whole period, methane (ch4) emissions (total) excluding lulucf in Turkmenistan peaked at 109.4% in 2015 and was at its lowest, -36.3%, in 1997.
That places Turkmenistan 52nd out of 203 countries with data for 2024, putting it in the middle of the range.

About this data
Change of emissions (as %) of current year with respect to emissions in baseline year 1990 emissions of methane (CH4), one of the six Kyoto greenhouse gases (GHG), from the agriculture, energy, waste, and industrial sectors, excluding LULUCF.. The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5). Negative values indicate that the emission level for that year is lower than the emissions level in 1990.
