Analysis
In 2024, carbon dioxide (co2) emissions from industrial processes in Greece stood at 4.12 Mt CO2e.
Compared with earlier readings it is up 3.6% on the previous year and down 18.9% over ten years.
Over the whole period, carbon dioxide (co2) emissions from industrial processes in Greece peaked at 8.02 Mt CO2e in 2005 and was at its lowest, 3.78 Mt CO2e, in 2011.
That places Greece 58th out of 203 countries with data for 2024, putting it in the middle of the range.
The long-run direction has been consistently falling 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 industrial processes including IPCC 2006 codes 2.A.1 Cement production, 2.A.2 Lime production, 2.A.3 Glass Production, 2.A.4 Other Process Uses of Carbonates, 2.B Chemical Industry, 2.C Metal Industry, 2.D Non-Energy Products from Fuels and Solvent Use, 2.E Electronics Industry, 2.F Product Uses as Substitutes for Ozone Depleting Substances, 2.G Other Product Manufacture and Use and 5.A Indirect N2O emissions from the atmospheric deposition of nitrogen in NOx and NH3. The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
