Analysis
French Polynesia recorded 0.132 Mt CO2e for carbon dioxide (co2) emissions from building (energy) in 2024.
Compared with earlier readings it is up 4.6% on the previous year and up 2.5% over ten years.
Over the whole period, carbon dioxide (co2) emissions from building (energy) in French Polynesia peaked at 0.2265 Mt CO2e in 1989 and was at its lowest, 0.0405 Mt CO2e, in 1977.
That places French Polynesia 152nd out of 193 countries with data for 2024, putting it in the bottom quarter.
The long-run direction has been consistently rising across the 55 years of available data.

About this data
A measure of annual emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2), one of the six Kyoto greenhouse gases (GHG), from the building sector (subsector of the energy sector) including IPCC 2006 codes 1.A.4 Residential and other sectors, 1.A.5 Non-Specified. The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
