South Sudan Greenhouse Gas and Air Pollutant Emissions (2015-2026)

Climate TRACE provides annual and monthly greenhouse gas and air pollutant emission estimates for South Sudan across various sub-sectors and gases. National-level annual records date back to 2015, while source-level monthly data with confidence scores begins in 2021.

Use Cases

• Tracking specific gas emissions (e.g., CO2, CH4) by sub-sector to identify primary pollution drivers
• Evaluating the reliability of emission reports using the confidence field
• Identifying specific high-emission assets using source-level monthly data

Strengths

• Includes confidence scores for monthly source-level data
• Covers both greenhouse gases and air pollutants
• Provides source-level granularity for over 2.7 million sources globally

Limitations

• Source-level data is only available from 2021 onwards
• Ownership information is not available for all assets
• Emissions are model-based estimates rather than direct sensor measurements
