Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Industrial Processes (Mt CO2e) in Euro area, 1970–2023
Source: Statizoid (derived). Measured in Mt CO2e per square kilometre.
Analysis
Euro area recorded 0 Mt CO2e per square kilometre for nitrous oxide (n2o) emissions from industrial processes (mt co2e) in 2023. That is the lowest value across all 54 years on record.
Compared with earlier readings it is down 3.3% on the previous year and down 13.7% over ten years.
Over the whole period, nitrous oxide (n2o) emissions from industrial processes (mt co2e) in Euro area peaked at 0 Mt CO2e per square kilometre in 1974 and was at its lowest, 0 Mt CO2e per square kilometre, in 2023.
That places Euro area 2nd out of 47 groups with data for 2023, putting it in the top 10%.
The series is highly variable year to year, so single readings are best treated with caution.

How this figure is calculated
Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Industrial Processes (Mt CO2e) divided by Land area (sq. km), matched on country and year. Neither publisher issues this ratio as a series; it is computed here from both.
Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Industrial Processes (Mt CO2e) ÷ Land area (sq. km)
Computed from
- Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Industrial Processes EDGAR (Emissions Database for Global Atmospheric Research) Community GHG Database, Joint Research Centre (JRC) - European Commission
- Land area FAOSTAT, Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO)
Statizoid computes this series; the underlying measurements belong to the publishers named above. The arithmetic is applied to every country and year where both inputs report, and nothing is estimated unless the page says so.
