Analysis
Maldives recorded 0.536 kt for energy — emissions in 2023. That is the highest value across all 63 years on record.
The figure is up 1.9% on the previous year and up 58.1% over ten years.
Over the whole period, energy — emissions in Maldives peaked at 0.536 kt in 2023 and was at its lowest, 0.0267 kt, in 1961.
That places Maldives 170th out of 196 countries with data for 2023, putting it in the bottom quarter.
The series is highly variable year to year, so single readings are best treated with caution.

About this data
The FAOSTAT domain on Emissions Totals summarizes the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions disseminated in the FAOSTAT Climate Change domains of emissions from agrifood systems. Data are computed following the Tier 1 methods of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Guidelines for National greenhouse gas (GHG) Inventories (IPCC, 1996; 1997; 2000; 2002; 2006; 2014). Emissions from other economic sectors as defined by the IPCC are also disseminated in the domain for completeness.
