Analysis
Croatia recorded 1.06 Mt CO2e for nitrous oxide (n2o) emissions from industrial processes in 2024.
The figure is down 4.3% on the previous year and up 25.4% over ten years.
Over the whole period, nitrous oxide (n2o) emissions from industrial processes in Croatia peaked at 1.35 Mt CO2e in 1984 and was at its lowest, 0.6579 Mt CO2e, in 1998.
That places Croatia 50th out of 203 countries with data for 2024, putting it in the top quarter.
The long-run direction has been consistently falling 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 processes including IPCC 2006 codes 2.A.1 Cement production, 2.A.2 Lime production, 2.A.3 Glass Production, 2.A.4 Other Process Uses of Carbonates, 2.B Chemical Industry, 2.C Metal Industry, 2.D Non-Energy Products from Fuels and Solvent Use, 2.E Electronics Industry, 2.F Product Uses as Substitutes for Ozone Depleting Substances, 2.G Other Product Manufacture and Use and 5.A Indirect N2O emissions from the atmospheric deposition of nitrogen in NOx and NH3). The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
