Analysis
Cuba recorded 0.0062 Mt CO2e for methane (ch4) emissions from transport (energy) in 2024.
That represents a change of up 3.3% on the previous year and down 1.6% over ten years.
Over the whole period, methane (ch4) emissions from transport (energy) in Cuba peaked at 0.0454 Mt CO2e in 1988 and was at its lowest, 0.0056 Mt CO2e, in 2020.
That places Cuba 134th 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 the transportation sector (subsector of the energy sector) including IPCC 2006 codes 1.A.3.a Civil Aviation, 1.A.3.b_noRES Road Transportation no resuspension, 1.A.3.c Railways, 1.A.3.d Water-borne Navigation, 1.A.3.e Other Transportation. The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
