Analysis
In 2023, pre- and post-production — energy use in Portugal stood at 255.68 TJ.
Compared with earlier readings it is up 21.5% on the previous year and down 21.3% over ten years.
Over the whole period, pre- and post-production — energy use in Portugal peaked at 328.12 TJ in 2015 and was at its lowest, 3.87 TJ, in 1994.
That places Portugal 78th out of 120 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.
