Analysis
The most recent figure for methane (ch4) emissions from building (energy) in Russia is 1.96 Mt CO2e, measured in 2024.
Compared with earlier readings it is up 0.5% on the previous year and up 21.0% over ten years.
Over the whole period, methane (ch4) emissions from building (energy) in Russia peaked at 14.39 Mt CO2e in 1980 and was at its lowest, 1.47 Mt CO2e, in 2013.
Russia ranks 26th of 197 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 methane (CH4), 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).
