Analysis

Somalia recorded 0.2478 Mt CO2e for nitrous oxide (n2o) emissions from industrial processes in 2024. That is the highest value across all 55 years on record.

Compared with earlier readings it is up 0.2% on the previous year and up 21.5% over ten years.

Over the whole period, nitrous oxide (n2o) emissions from industrial processes in Somalia peaked at 0.2478 Mt CO2e in 2024 and was at its lowest, 0.0294 Mt CO2e, in 1970.

That places Somalia 104th out of 203 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 processes including IPCC 2006 codes 2.A.1 Cement production, 2.A.2 Lime production, 2.A.3 Glass Production, 2.A.4 Other Process Uses of Carbonates, 2.B Chemical Industry, 2.C Metal Industry, 2.D Non-Energy Products from Fuels and Solvent Use, 2.E Electronics Industry, 2.F Product Uses as Substitutes for Ozone Depleting Substances, 2.G Other Product Manufacture and Use and 5.A Indirect N2O emissions from the atmospheric deposition of nitrogen in NOx and NH3). The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
