Analysis
The most recent figure for nitrous oxide (n2o) emissions from building (energy) in Arab World is 1.64 Mt CO2e, measured in 2024.
That represents a change of up 2.6% on the previous year and up 7.2% over ten years.
Over the whole period, nitrous oxide (n2o) emissions from building (energy) in Arab World peaked at 2.17 Mt CO2e in 2008 and was at its lowest, 0.3802 Mt CO2e, in 1970.
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 nitrous oxide (N2O), one of the six Kyoto greenhouse gases (GHG), from the building sector (subsector of the energy sector) including IPCC 2006 codes 1.A.4 Residential and other sectors, 1.A.5 Non-Specified. The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
