Analysis
The most recent figure for methane (ch4) emissions from power industry (energy) in Bolivia is 0.0181 Mt CO2e, measured in 2024.
The figure is up 12.4% on the previous year and up 96.7% over ten years.
Over the whole period, methane (ch4) emissions from power industry (energy) in Bolivia peaked at 0.0185 Mt CO2e in 2021 and was at its lowest, 0.0004 Mt CO2e, in 1970.
That places Bolivia 70th out of 194 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.

About this data
A measure of annual emissions of methane (CH4), one of the six Kyoto greenhouse gases (GHG), from electricity and heat generation (subsector of the energy sector) including IPCC 2006 code 1.A.1.a. The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
