Data definition
Energy & Process GHG Emissions — - Energy & Process GHG Emissions refer to the total greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions generated from energy-related activities and industrial processes within a given year. The indicator is typically expressed in million tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent (MtCO₂e) and combines emissions from fossil fuel combustion, industrial energy use, and process-related activities into a single measure using global warming potential (GWP) factors. It provides a comprehensive assessment of emissions associated with energy production, energy consumption, and industrial manufacturing, making it a key indicator for evaluating a country's environmental impact, industrial development, and progress toward climate mitigation objectives.
The data includes greenhouse gas emissions from the combustion of fossil fuels such as coal, oil, and natural gas across all major sectors, including electricity and heat generation, manufacturing, transportation, residential, commercial, and other energy-consuming activities. It also includes emissions from industrial processes that are not directly related to fuel combustion, such as cement production, lime manufacturing, chemical production, metal processing, and other process-related industrial activities. The indicator incorporates major greenhouse gases, including carbon dioxide (CO₂), methane (CH₄), nitrous oxide (N₂O), and, where applicable, fluorinated gases, expressed as carbon dioxide equivalent (CO₂e) using internationally recognized global warming potential factors. Data is compiled using standardized international methodologies to ensure consistent reporting and comparability across countries and over time.
The data excludes greenhouse gas emissions from agriculture, forestry, land-use change and forestry (LULUCF), waste management, and other non-energy sectors unless explicitly included within the reporting methodology. It does not account for carbon removals through forests, carbon capture, utilization and storage (CCUS), or other negative emission technologies. The indicator excludes indirect emissions embodied in imported goods and services and does not measure sector-specific emission intensity, per capita emissions, or energy efficiency. Variations in national reporting practices, industrial classifications, emission factors, and estimation methodologies may result in minor differences in reported values across countries.

It provides a comprehensive assessment of emissions associated with energy production, energy consumption, and industrial manufacturing, making it a key indicator for evaluating a country's environmental impact, industrial development, and progress toward climate mitigation objectives.
Measured in million tonnes, the dataset reflects emissions produced through fuel combustion, electricity generation, and industrial processes, making it a key indicator of economic development, energy sector expansion, and environmental impact. It supports long-term evaluation of emission trends, climate policy effectiveness, and sustainable energy planning.
Uzbekistan's energy and process GHG emissions declined from 133.1 million tonnes in 2015 to 129.7 million tonnes in 2016, before recovering to 131.5 million tonnes in 2017. Emissions continued rising to 138.4 million tonnes in 2018 and 138.7 million tonnes in 2019, followed by a moderate increase to 140.3 million tonnes in 2020 despite global economic challenges. Growth remained steady thereafter, reaching 147.7 million tonnes in 2021, 150.8 million tonnes in 2022, and 152.9 million tonnes in 2023, the highest level observed during the review period.
Overall, the dataset demonstrates a gradual upward trend in Uzbekistan's energy and process GHG emissions following the initial decline in 2016. Rising emissions reflect expanding industrial production, increasing energy demand, and sustained economic development. The dataset serves as an important reference for monitoring environmental performance, evaluating climate and energy policies, forecasting future greenhouse gas emissions, assessing industrial growth, and supporting policymakers, researchers, investors, and industry stakeholders in developing effective emissions management strategies and long-term sustainable development initiatives.
