Analysis

The most recent figure for methane (ch4) emissions from transport (energy) in Suriname is 0.0041 Mt CO2e, measured in 2024.

Compared with earlier readings it is up 2.5% on the previous year and up 36.7% over ten years.

Over the whole period, methane (ch4) emissions from transport (energy) in Suriname peaked at 0.0043 Mt CO2e in 2016 and was at its lowest, 0.0002 Mt CO2e, in 1970.

That places Suriname 146th out of 194 countries with data for 2024, putting it in the bottom quarter.

The series is highly variable year to year, so single readings are best treated with caution.
