Analysis
Lithuania recorded 0.0381 Mt CO2e for nitrous oxide (n2o) emissions from building (energy) in 2024.
Compared with earlier readings it is down 1.3% on the previous year and down 7.1% over ten years.
Over the whole period, nitrous oxide (n2o) emissions from building (energy) in Lithuania peaked at 0.1766 Mt CO2e in 1987 and was at its lowest, 0.0368 Mt CO2e, in 2001.
Lithuania ranks 115th of 197 countries on this measure, in the middle of the range.
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).
