Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from Fugitive Emissions (Energy) in Benin, 1970–2024
Source: EDGAR (Emissions Database for Global Atmospheric Research) Community GHG Database, Joint Research Centre (JRC) - European Commission. Measured in Mt CO2e.
Analysis
Benin recorded 0.0052 Mt CO2e for carbon dioxide (co2) emissions from fugitive emissions (energy) in 2024.
That represents a change of up 8.3% on the previous year and up 20.9% over five years.
Over the whole period, carbon dioxide (co2) emissions from fugitive emissions (energy) in Benin peaked at 0.0449 Mt CO2e in 2016 and was at its lowest, 0 Mt CO2e, in 1970.
Benin ranks 132nd of 190 countries on this measure, 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 carbon dioxide (CO2), one of the six Kyoto greenhouse gases (GHG), from fugitive emissions (subsector of the energy sector) including IPCC 2006 codes 1.A.1.bc Petroleum Refining - Manufacture of Solid Fuels and Other Energy Industries, 1.B.1 Solid Fuels, 1.B.2 Oil and Natural Gas, 5.B. The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
