Analysis
Mauritius recorded 1,435 kt for energy use (pre- and post-production) — emissions (co2eq) in 2023. That is the highest value across all 34 years on record.
Compared with earlier readings it is up 0.8% on the previous year and up 50.0% over ten years.
Over the whole period, energy use (pre- and post-production) — emissions (co2eq) in Mauritius peaked at 1,435 kt in 2023 and was at its lowest, 79.65 kt, in 1990.
That places Mauritius 121st out of 246 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.
