Analysis

The most recent figure for nitrous oxide (n2o) emissions from building (energy) in Liberia is 0.1459 Mt CO2e, measured in 2024. That is the highest value across all 55 years on record.

That represents a change of up 0.1% on the previous year and up 24.7% over ten years.

Over the whole period, nitrous oxide (n2o) emissions from building (energy) in Liberia peaked at 0.1459 Mt CO2e in 2024 and was at its lowest, 0.0209 Mt CO2e, in 1976.

That places Liberia 62nd out of 197 countries with data for 2024, putting it in the middle of the range.

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

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).
