Analysis

The most recent figure for energy use (pre- and post-production) — emissions (co2eq) in Chile is 14,140 kt, measured in 2023.

Compared with earlier readings it is down 0.9% on the previous year and up 29.1% over ten years.

Over the whole period, energy use (pre- and post-production) — emissions (co2eq) in Chile peaked at 14,273 kt in 2022 and was at its lowest, 2,535 kt, in 1991.

That places Chile 43rd out of 246 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.

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.
