Algeria: Greenhouse Gas and Air Pollutant Emissions from 2015

Climate TRACE provides greenhouse gas and air pollutant emission estimates for Algeria, featuring annual country-level data since 2015 and monthly source-level data since 2021. The dataset covers multiple sub-sectors and gas types, drawing from a global inventory of 2.7 million sources. It includes confidence metrics for source-level estimates and ownership information where available.

Use Cases

• Trend analysis of Algeria's industrial emissions using monthly source-level estimates
• Sectoral benchmarking of greenhouse gas types using annual sub-sector data
• Spatial mapping of high-emission assets using source-level coordinates

Strengths

• Multi-gas coverage including greenhouse gases and air pollutants
• Source-level granularity for monthly data starting in 2021
• Confidence metrics provided for source-level estimates

Limitations

• Estimates are model-based rather than direct sensor measurements
• Temporal gap between country-level (2015) and source-level (2021) start dates
• Incomplete ownership metadata for emission sources
