Analysis

Iraq recorded 4.51 Mt CO2e for f-gases emissions from industrial processes in 2024. That is the highest value across all 35 years on record.

That represents a change of up 6.8% on the previous year and up 153.2% over ten years.

Over the whole period, f-gases emissions from industrial processes in Iraq peaked at 4.51 Mt CO2e in 2024 and was at its lowest, 0.2381 Mt CO2e, in 1995.

Iraq ranks 38th of 154 countries on this measure, in the top quarter.

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