IEA CO2 Emissions from Fuel Combustion Statistics 1960-2022

Detailed CO2 emissions estimates from fossil fuel combustion, spanning from 1960 to 2022. The International Energy Agency compiled this data, which breaks down emissions by specific industry flows such as iron and steel, manufacturing, and agriculture.

Use Cases

• Analyze CO2 emissions trends over time from 1960 to 2022 for specific industry flows like iron and steel or manufacturing.
• Model the relationship between different fuel products, such as Refinery Gas, Natural Gas, or Kerosene, and their associated CO2 emissions.
• Compare sector-specific emissions from agriculture, fishing, and mining to identify key contributors to greenhouse gas output.
• Assess the impact of transport modes, including road and pipeline transport, on total CO2 emissions from fuel combustion.

Strengths

• Data covers a long temporal range from 1960 to 2022, enabling longitudinal analysis.
• Emissions are broken down by specific industry flows and fuel products, providing detailed sectoral insights.
• Compiled by the authoritative International Energy Agency, ensuring a reliable source.

Limitations

• The dataset's specific row count, column structure, and file formats are unknown, limiting immediate usability assessment.
• Data may be aggregated at a national or sectoral level, lacking granular sub-national or facility-specific details.
• Relies on estimated CO2 emissions from fuel combustion, which may not capture all emission sources or use consistent methodologies across all years.
