Methane (CH4) emissions from Fugitive Emissions (Energy) in Panama, 1970–2024
Source: EDGAR (Emissions Database for Global Atmospheric Research) Community GHG Database, Joint Research Centre (JRC) - European Commission. Measured in Mt CO2e.
Analysis
Panama recorded 0.0039 Mt CO2e for methane (ch4) emissions from fugitive emissions (energy) in 2024.
Compared with earlier readings it is down 9.3% over ten years.
Over the whole period, methane (ch4) emissions from fugitive emissions (energy) in Panama peaked at 0.0375 Mt CO2e in 1975 and was at its lowest, 0.0029 Mt CO2e, in 2003.
That places Panama 164th out of 192 countries with data for 2024, putting it in the bottom 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 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).
