Analysis
In 2024, nitrous oxide (n2o) emissions from industrial combustion (energy) in Bhutan stood at 0.0043 Mt CO2e.
The figure is up 2.4% on the previous year and up 13.2% over ten years.
Over the whole period, nitrous oxide (n2o) emissions from industrial combustion (energy) in Bhutan peaked at 0.0057 Mt CO2e in 1994 and was at its lowest, 0 Mt CO2e, in 1970.
Bhutan ranks 114th of 194 countries on this measure, 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 industrial combustion (subsector of the energy sector) including IPCC 2006 code 1.A.2 Manufacturing Industries and Construction. The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
