Analysis

In 2024, nitrous oxide (n2o) emissions from industrial combustion (energy) in Cuba stood at 0.0412 Mt CO2e. That is the lowest value across all 55 years on record.

The figure is down 5.5% on the previous year and down 35.6% over ten years.

Over the whole period, nitrous oxide (n2o) emissions from industrial combustion (energy) in Cuba peaked at 0.2918 Mt CO2e in 1990 and was at its lowest, 0.0412 Mt CO2e, in 2024.

That places Cuba 50th out of 193 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 industrial combustion (subsector of the energy sector) including IPCC 2006 code 1.A.2 Manufacturing Industries and Construction. The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
