Analysis

Guinea recorded 0.0152 Mt CO2e for nitrous oxide (n2o) emissions from fugitive emissions (energy) in 2024.

Compared with earlier readings it is up 12.6% over ten years.

Over the whole period, nitrous oxide (n2o) emissions from fugitive emissions (energy) in Guinea peaked at 0.0156 Mt CO2e in 2020 and was at its lowest, 0.0004 Mt CO2e, in 1970.

That places Guinea 53rd out of 187 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.
