Moldova Greenhouse Gas and Air Pollutant Emissions (2015-2026)

Climate TRACE provides greenhouse gas and air pollutant emission estimates for the Republic of Moldova, featuring annual country-level data since 2015 and monthly source-level data since 2021. The inventory tracks emissions across specific sub-sectors and gases, incorporating source ownership details where available. This data is part of a global effort to map over 2.7 million emission sources using remote sensing and modeling.

Use Cases

• Analyzing temporal trends in Moldova's industrial sub-sectors using annual gas emission totals
• Identifying high-emission geographic hotspots using monthly source-level coordinates and gas types
• Evaluating the reliability of climate models using the provided confidence metrics

Strengths

• Provides monthly granularity for source-level emissions since 2021
• Includes confidence scores for each emission estimate
• Covers both greenhouse gases and localized air pollutants

Limitations

• Emission values are modeled estimates rather than direct physical meter readings
• Source ownership data is inconsistent and only included where available
• Temporal resolution for the 2015-2020 period is limited to annual aggregates
