Analysis
Romania recorded 12.45 Mt CO2e for carbon dioxide (co2) emissions from building (energy) in 2024.
That represents a change of up 3.6% on the previous year and up 32.0% over ten years.
Over the whole period, carbon dioxide (co2) emissions from building (energy) in Romania peaked at 37.29 Mt CO2e in 1987 and was at its lowest, 7.45 Mt CO2e, in 1994.
Romania ranks 34th of 193 countries on this measure, in the top 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 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).
