Analysis

The most recent figure for nitrous oxide (n2o) emissions from transport (energy) in Chad is 0.0189 Mt CO2e, measured in 2024. That is the highest value across all 55 years on record.

The figure is up 1.6% on the previous year and up 200.0% over ten years.

Over the whole period, nitrous oxide (n2o) emissions from transport (energy) in Chad peaked at 0.0189 Mt CO2e in 2024 and was at its lowest, 0.0001 Mt CO2e, in 1970.

That places Chad 133rd 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.
