Analysis
Guyana recorded 0.0112 Mt CO2e for nitrous oxide (n2o) emissions from building (energy) in 2024.
Compared with earlier readings it is up 3.7% on the previous year and down 65.1% over ten years.
Over the whole period, nitrous oxide (n2o) emissions from building (energy) in Guyana peaked at 0.0343 Mt CO2e in 2019 and was at its lowest, 0.003 Mt CO2e, in 1970.
That places Guyana 134th out of 197 countries with data for 2024, putting it in the middle of the range.
The long-run direction has been consistently rising across the 55 years of available data.

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).
