Analysis
Bulgaria recorded 2,413 TJ for pre- and post-production — energy use in 2023.
Compared with earlier readings it is up 27.7% over ten years.
Over the whole period, pre- and post-production — energy use in Bulgaria peaked at 3,269 TJ in 2005 and was at its lowest, 44.92 TJ, in 1999.
That places Bulgaria 31st out of 48 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.
