Analysis
In 2023, energy use (pre- and post-production) — emissions in Thailand stood at 16.36 kt. That is the highest value across all 34 years on record.
Compared with earlier readings it is up 49.4% on the previous year and up 111.9% over ten years.
Over the whole period, energy use (pre- and post-production) — emissions in Thailand peaked at 16.36 kt in 2023 and was at its lowest, 1.49 kt, in 1992.
Thailand ranks 4th of 242 countries on this measure, in the top 10%.
The series is highly variable year to year, so single readings are best treated with caution.

About this data
The FAOSTAT domain Emissions from Pre- and Post-Agricultural Production provides estimates of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and related activity data associated with pre- and post-production stages of agrifood systems. The domain includes methane (CH4), nitrous oxide (N2O), carbon dioxide (CO2), fluorinated gases (F-gases) and their aggregates expressed in carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2eq). Estimates are computed following Tier 1 methods of the IPCC Guidelines for National Greenhouse Gas Inventories (IPCC, 1996; 1997; 2000; 2002; 2006; 2014) and are disseminated annually.
