Analysis
The most recent figure for methane (ch4) emissions from transport (energy) in Myanmar is 0.0586 Mt CO2e, measured in 2024. That is the highest value across all 55 years on record.
That represents a change of up 3.2% on the previous year and up 104.9% over ten years.
Over the whole period, methane (ch4) emissions from transport (energy) in Myanmar peaked at 0.0586 Mt CO2e in 2024 and was at its lowest, 0.0095 Mt CO2e, in 1970.
Myanmar ranks 54th of 194 countries on this measure, 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).
