Analysis
In 2023, energy use (pre- and post-production) — emissions (co2eq) in Morocco stood at 19,865 kt. That is the highest value across all 34 years on record.
That represents a change of up 0.1% on the previous year and up 54.8% over ten years.
Over the whole period, energy use (pre- and post-production) — emissions (co2eq) in Morocco peaked at 19,865 kt in 2023 and was at its lowest, 2,737 kt, in 1990.
That places Morocco 37th 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.

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.
