Cabo Verde: Greenhouse Gas and Air Pollutant Emissions from 2015

Climate TRACE provides annual country-level and monthly source-level greenhouse gas and air pollutant emissions for Cabo Verde starting from 2015 and 2021 respectively. The inventory estimates emissions across specific sub-sectors and individual assets, drawing from a global database of over 2.7 million sources. This data is maintained by the Climate TRACE coalition to provide open access to localized climate impact metrics.

Use Cases

• Analyzing annual trends in Cabo Verde's greenhouse gas emissions by sub-sector
• Monitoring monthly fluctuations in air pollutant levels at specific source locations using 2021-2026 data
• Evaluating the climate impact of specific industrial assets using ownership and confidence fields

Strengths

• Provides monthly source-level granularity for data from 2021 onwards
• Includes confidence scores for individual source-level estimates
• Covers both greenhouse gases and specific air pollutants

Limitations

• Emissions are modeled estimates rather than direct sensor measurements
• Specific column headers are not defined in the provided metadata
• Asset ownership information is inconsistent across all records
