Analysis
The most recent figure for pre- and post-production — energy use in Nepal is 5,990 TJ, measured in 2023. That is the highest value across all 34 years on record.
Compared with earlier readings it is up 1.2% on the previous year and up 350.1% over ten years.
Over the whole period, pre- and post-production — energy use in Nepal peaked at 5,990 TJ in 2023 and was at its lowest, 140.87 TJ, in 1993.
Nepal ranks 118th of 207 countries on this measure, 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.
