Analysis
Russia recorded 1 Mt CO2e for methane (ch4) emissions from transport (energy) in 2024.
Compared with earlier readings it is up 2.6% on the previous year and up 3.0% over ten years.
Over the whole period, methane (ch4) emissions from transport (energy) in Russia peaked at 1.42 Mt CO2e in 1990 and was at its lowest, 0.5853 Mt CO2e, in 1971.
Russia ranks 5th of 194 countries on this measure, in the top 10%.
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 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).
