Benin Greenhouse Gas and Air Pollutant Emissions from 2015 to 2026

Climate TRACE provides greenhouse gas and air pollutant emission estimates for Benin, covering annual country-level data since 2015 and monthly source-level data since 2021. These estimates are part of a global inventory of 2.7 million sources derived from 744 million assets.

Use Cases

• Analyzing temporal trends in Benin's emissions using the monthly source-level data from 2021
• Comparing emission contributions across different sub-sectors and gas types
• Assessing the reliability of specific emission points using the confidence field

Strengths

• Includes monthly source-level emissions starting in 2021
• Provides confidence metrics for individual source-level estimates
• Covers annual country-level data by sub-sector and gas beginning in 2015

Limitations

• Source-level ownership data is missing for many assets
• Emissions are modeled estimates rather than direct sensor measurements
