Analysis

The most recent figure for nitrous oxide (n2o) emissions from transport (energy) in Mongolia is 0.0847 Mt CO2e, measured in 2024.

That represents a change of up 4.6% on the previous year and up 47.3% over ten years.

Over the whole period, nitrous oxide (n2o) emissions from transport (energy) in Mongolia peaked at 0.0878 Mt CO2e in 2019 and was at its lowest, 0.0026 Mt CO2e, in 1970.

That places Mongolia 83rd 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.
