Analysis
IDA only recorded 0.8516 Mt CO2e for nitrous oxide (n2o) emissions from industrial combustion (energy) in 2024. That is the highest value across all 55 years on record.
The figure is up 0.8% on the previous year and up 10.1% over ten years.
Over the whole period, nitrous oxide (n2o) emissions from industrial combustion (energy) in IDA only peaked at 0.8516 Mt CO2e in 2024 and was at its lowest, 0.342 Mt CO2e, in 1970.
That places IDA only 29th out of 45 groups with data for 2024, putting it in the middle of the range.
The long-run direction has been consistently rising across the 55 years of available data.

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).
