Analysis
Other small states recorded 0.4034 Mt CO2e for nitrous oxide (n2o) emissions from power industry (energy) in 2024. That is the highest value across all 55 years on record.
The figure is up 0.6% on the previous year and up 514.0% over ten years.
Over the whole period, nitrous oxide (n2o) emissions from power industry (energy) in Other small states peaked at 0.4034 Mt CO2e in 2024 and was at its lowest, 0.0206 Mt CO2e, in 1970.
That places Other small states 41st out of 45 groups with data for 2024, putting it in the bottom quarter.
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).
