Analysis
The most recent figure for methane (ch4) emissions from fugitive emissions (energy) in Philippines is 12.67 Mt CO2e, measured in 2024. That is the highest value across all 55 years on record.
That represents a change of up 1.6% on the previous year and up 55.9% over ten years.
Over the whole period, methane (ch4) emissions from fugitive emissions (energy) in Philippines peaked at 12.67 Mt CO2e in 2024 and was at its lowest, 2.88 Mt CO2e, in 1972.
Philippines ranks 34th of 192 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 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).
