Analysis
Afghanistan recorded 2,629 TJ for pre- and post-production — energy use in 2023.
The figure is up 0.8% on the previous year and up 117.7% over ten years.
Over the whole period, pre- and post-production — energy use in Afghanistan peaked at 2,705 TJ in 2019 and was at its lowest, 81.64 TJ, in 2001.
That places Afghanistan 139th out of 207 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.
