Analysis
In 2024, nitrous oxide (n2o) emissions from fugitive emissions (energy) in Morocco stood at 0.0008 Mt CO2e.
Compared with earlier readings it is down 65.2% over ten years.
Over the whole period, nitrous oxide (n2o) emissions from fugitive emissions (energy) in Morocco peaked at 0.0027 Mt CO2e in 2010 and was at its lowest, 0.0004 Mt CO2e, in 1970.
That places Morocco 129th out of 187 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 nitrous oxide (N2O), one of the six Kyoto greenhouse gases (GHG), from fugitive emissions (subsector of the energy sector) including IPCC 2006 codes 1.A.1.bc Petroleum Refining - Manufacture of Solid Fuels and Other Energy Industries, 1.B.1 Solid Fuels, 1.B.2 Oil and Natural Gas, 5.B. The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
