Analysis
Uzbekistan recorded 19.76 million tonnes for annual co₂ emissions from coal in 2024. That is the highest value across all 173 years on record.
Compared with earlier readings it is up 9.1% on the previous year and up 165.9% over ten years.
Over the whole period, annual co₂ emissions from coal in Uzbekistan peaked at 19.76 million tonnes in 2024 and was at its lowest, 381 tonnes, in 1832.
That places Uzbekistan 31st out of 179 countries with data for 2024, putting it in the top quarter.
The series is highly variable year to year, so single readings are best treated with caution.
