Analysis
Nigeria recorded 9,002 TJ for pre- and post-production — energy use in 2023. That is the highest value across all 34 years on record.
The figure is up 17.0% over ten years.
Over the whole period, pre- and post-production — energy use in Nigeria peaked at 9,002 TJ in 2022 and was at its lowest, 1,771 TJ, in 1990.
That places Nigeria 24th out of 120 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.
