Analysis

Qatar recorded 0.0142 Mt CO2e for nitrous oxide (n2o) emissions from power industry (energy) in 2024. That is the highest value across all 55 years on record.

Compared with earlier readings it is up 6.0% on the previous year and up 56.0% over ten years.

Over the whole period, nitrous oxide (n2o) emissions from power industry (energy) in Qatar peaked at 0.0142 Mt CO2e in 2024 and was at its lowest, 0.0006 Mt CO2e, in 1970.

That places Qatar 94th out of 194 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 electricity and heat generation (subsector of the energy sector) including IPCC 2006 code 1.A.1.a. The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
