Analysis
In 2024, nitrous oxide (n2o) emissions from transport (energy) in IDA only stood at 2.79 Mt CO2e. That is the highest value across all 55 years on record.
The figure is up 3.2% on the previous year and up 37.8% over ten years.
Over the whole period, nitrous oxide (n2o) emissions from transport (energy) in IDA only peaked at 2.79 Mt CO2e in 2024 and was at its lowest, 0.2235 Mt CO2e, in 1970.
That places IDA only 33rd out of 46 groups 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 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).
