Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Transport (Energy) in Gabon, 1970–2024
Source: EDGAR (Emissions Database for Global Atmospheric Research) Community GHG Database, Joint Research Centre (JRC) - European Commission. Measured in Mt CO2e.
Analysis
In 2024, nitrous oxide (n2o) emissions from transport (energy) in Gabon stood at 0.002 Mt CO2e.
The figure is up 5.3% on the previous year and down 76.7% over ten years.
Over the whole period, nitrous oxide (n2o) emissions from transport (energy) in Gabon peaked at 0.0101 Mt CO2e in 2016 and was at its lowest, 0 Mt CO2e, in 1970.
Gabon ranks 176th of 194 countries on this measure, 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 the transportation sector (subsector of the energy sector) including IPCC 2006 codes 1.A.3.a Civil Aviation, 1.A.3.b_noRES Road Transportation no resuspension, 1.A.3.c Railways, 1.A.3.d Water-borne Navigation, 1.A.3.e Other Transportation. The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
