Analysis
In 2024, cumulative co₂ emissions from oil in Ukraine stood at 6.84 billion tonnes. That is the highest value across all 173 years on record.
The figure is up 0.5% on the previous year and up 5.2% over ten years.
Over the whole period, cumulative co₂ emissions from oil in Ukraine peaked at 6.84 billion tonnes in 2024 and was at its lowest, 0 tonnes, in 1830.
That places Ukraine 18th out of 215 countries with data for 2024, putting it in the top 10%.
The series is highly variable year to year, so single readings are best treated with caution.
