Analysis
Cyprus recorded 0.005 Mt CO2e for nitrous oxide (n2o) emissions from power industry (energy) in 2024.
The figure is up 2.0% on the previous year and up 16.3% over ten years.
Over the whole period, nitrous oxide (n2o) emissions from power industry (energy) in Cyprus peaked at 0.0054 Mt CO2e in 2010 and was at its lowest, 0.0007 Mt CO2e, in 1970.
Cyprus ranks 113th 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 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).
