Analysis
In 2024, nitrous oxide (n2o) emissions from building (energy) in Tanzania stood at 0.6866 Mt CO2e. That is the highest value across all 55 years on record.
That represents a change of up 17.2% over ten years.
Over the whole period, nitrous oxide (n2o) emissions from building (energy) in Tanzania peaked at 0.6866 Mt CO2e in 2024 and was at its lowest, 0.125 Mt CO2e, in 1970.
That places Tanzania 24th out of 197 countries with data for 2024, putting it in the top quarter.
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).
