Analysis
In 2023, energy use (pre- and post-production) — emissions in Zimbabwe stood at 3,801 kt.
The figure is down 0.1% on the previous year and up 206.8% over ten years.
Over the whole period, energy use (pre- and post-production) — emissions in Zimbabwe peaked at 3,805 kt in 2022 and was at its lowest, 420.02 kt, in 1991.
That places Zimbabwe 71st out of 242 countries with data for 2023, putting it in the middle of the range.
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.
