Cayman Islands Greenhouse Gas Emissions by Sub-Sector and Gas (2015-2026)

Climate TRACE provides greenhouse gas and air pollutant emission estimates for the Cayman Islands, featuring annual country-level data since 2015 and monthly source-level data since 2021. The dataset categorizes emissions by sub-sector and specific gas types, derived from a global inventory of over 2.7 million sources. This data was produced by the Climate TRACE coalition and was last updated in March 2026.

Use Cases

• Analyzing temporal trends in specific greenhouse gases using the annual country-level emissions fields
• Identifying high-emission hotspots using the monthly source-level geospatial data
• Evaluating the reliability of climate models using the provided confidence scores

Strengths

• Includes confidence scores for source-level emission estimates
• Provides sub-sector granularity for both annual and monthly data
• Covers specific gas types rather than just CO2 equivalents

Limitations

• Data consists of estimates rather than direct sensor measurements for all assets
• Source-level ownership data is inconsistent across the dataset
