Analysis
Qatar recorded 0.0003 Mt CO2e for nitrous oxide (n2o) emissions from building (energy) in 2024.
Compared with earlier readings it is unchanged over ten years.
Over the whole period, nitrous oxide (n2o) emissions from building (energy) in Qatar peaked at 0.0005 Mt CO2e in 2011 and was at its lowest, 0.0001 Mt CO2e, in 1970.
That places Qatar 178th out of 197 countries with data for 2024, putting it in the bottom quarter.
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).
