Tajikistan in context

0.13% vs 0.03%

Share of people vs share of CO₂

Tajikistan is home to 0.13% of the world’s population and produces 0.03% of its fossil CO₂, so its share of emissions is smaller than its share of people.

−13%

Change since 1990

Emissions in 2024 were 13% lower than in 1990, the baseline year of the Kyoto Protocol (12.3 Mt then). World emissions rose 70% over the same period.

13 Mt

Consumption-based CO₂ (2023)

Counting the CO₂ in goods it imports and exports, Tajikistan was responsible for 13.0 Mt in 2023, 26% more than the 10.3 Mt produced at home: it is a net importer of emissions.

201 g

CO₂ per kWh of energy

Each kilowatt-hour of primary energy used in Tajikistan came with about 201 g of CO₂ in 2024 (world: 218 g), pointing to an energy mix close to the world average.

0.21 kg

CO₂ per dollar of GDP

Its economy emitted 0.21 kg of CO₂ for each dollar of output in 2022 (adjusted for purchasing power), 28% below the world average of 0.29 kg.

Questions and answers

How much CO₂ does Tajikistan emit?

Tajikistan emitted 10.7 million tonnes of CO₂ from fossil fuels and industry in 2024, 0.0% of global emissions. That is about 0 tonnes every second.

What are Tajikistan’s CO₂ emissions per person?

Tajikistan emits 1.0 tonnes per person, 79% below the world average of 4.7 t. Per-person emissions divide the national total by population (10.6 million people in 2024).

Are Tajikistan’s CO₂ emissions rising or falling?

Emissions rose 3.9% in 2024 compared with 2023. Compared with 2005, emissions are up 346%. Emissions peaked in 1988 at 13.0 million tonnes and are now 18% lower.

What is the main source of CO₂ emissions in Tajikistan?

Coal is the largest source, at 41% of Tajikistan’s fossil and industry CO₂ in 2024 (4.4 million tonnes).

What are Tajikistan’s consumption-based CO₂ emissions?

About 13.0 million tonnes in 2023, 26% more than the 10.3 million tonnes emitted within its borders, because it imports more carbon-intensive goods than it exports. Consumption-based accounting adds the emissions embodied in imports and subtracts those in exports.

How much has Tajikistan contributed to historical CO₂ emissions?

Since 1750, Tajikistan has emitted about 1 billion tonnes of fossil CO₂, 0.0% of the world total, the 101st largest historical contribution.
