Analysis
Egypt recorded 240,000 kt for energy — emissions in 2023.
The figure is down 1.6% on the previous year and up 25.0% over ten years.
Over the whole period, energy — emissions in Egypt peaked at 244,000 kt in 2022 and was at its lowest, 18,200 kt, in 1969.
That places Egypt 26th out of 200 countries with data for 2023, putting it in the top 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.
