Analysis

In 2024, methane (ch4) emissions from industrial combustion (energy) in Myanmar stood at 0.014 Mt CO2e.

The figure is up 0.7% on the previous year and down 30.3% over ten years.

Over the whole period, methane (ch4) emissions from industrial combustion (energy) in Myanmar peaked at 0.0262 Mt CO2e in 2019 and was at its lowest, 0.0007 Mt CO2e, in 1993.

That places Myanmar 71st out of 193 countries with data for 2024, putting it in the middle of the range.

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

A measure of annual emissions of methane (CH4), one of the six Kyoto greenhouse gases (GHG), from industrial combustion (subsector of the energy sector) including IPCC 2006 code 1.A.2 Manufacturing Industries and Construction. The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
