Analysis
Tajikistan recorded 72.56 grams of CO₂ equivalents per kilowatt-hour for lifecycle carbon intensity of electricity in 2025.
The figure is up 2.0% on the previous year and up 126.4% over ten years.
Over the whole period, lifecycle carbon intensity of electricity in Tajikistan peaked at 110.52 grams of CO₂ equivalents per kilowatt-hour in 2021 and was at its lowest, 24.63 grams of CO₂ equivalents per kilowatt-hour, in 2011.
That places Tajikistan 194th out of 213 countries with data for 2025, putting it in the bottom quarter.
The series is highly variable year to year, so single readings are best treated with caution.
