Analysis
The most recent figure for nitrous oxide (n2o) emissions from power industry (energy) in Bhutan is 0.0028 Mt CO2e, measured in 2024.
The figure is up 40.0% over ten years.
Over the whole period, nitrous oxide (n2o) emissions from power industry (energy) in Bhutan peaked at 0.003 Mt CO2e in 2019 and was at its lowest, 0 Mt CO2e, in 1970.
That places Bhutan 125th out of 194 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 electricity and heat generation (subsector of the energy sector) including IPCC 2006 code 1.A.1.a. The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
