Analysis
Kazakhstan recorded 0.0467 Mt CO2e for methane (ch4) emissions from power industry (energy) in 2024. That is the highest value across all 55 years on record.
The figure is up 3.5% on the previous year and up 45.9% over ten years.
Over the whole period, methane (ch4) emissions from power industry (energy) in Kazakhstan peaked at 0.0467 Mt CO2e in 2024 and was at its lowest, 0.0124 Mt CO2e, in 1999.
That places Kazakhstan 49th out of 194 countries with data for 2024, putting it in the top quarter.
The long-run direction has been consistently rising across the 55 years of available data.

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).
