Analysis

In 2024, carbon dioxide (co2) emissions from transport (energy) in Chile stood at 29.79 Mt CO2e.

That represents a change of up 4.9% on the previous year and up 26.4% over ten years.

Over the whole period, carbon dioxide (co2) emissions from transport (energy) in Chile peaked at 31.19 Mt CO2e in 2022 and was at its lowest, 4.53 Mt CO2e, in 1975.

That places Chile 35th out of 194 countries with data for 2024, putting it in the top quarter.

The series is highly variable year to year, so single readings are best treated with caution.

A measure of annual emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2), 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).
