Togo in context

0.10% vs 0.01%

Share of people vs share of CO₂

Togo is home to 0.10% of the world’s population and produces 0.01% of its fossil CO₂, so its share of emissions is smaller than its share of people.

+180%

Change since 1990

Emissions in 2024 were 180% higher than in 1990, the baseline year of the Kyoto Protocol (1.0 Mt then). World emissions rose 70% over the same period.

9 Mt

Consumption-based CO₂ (2023)

Counting the CO₂ in goods it imports and exports, Togo was responsible for 8.6 Mt in 2023, 220% more than the 2.7 Mt produced at home: it is a net importer of emissions.

216 g

CO₂ per kWh of energy

Each kilowatt-hour of primary energy used in Togo came with about 216 g of CO₂ in 2024 (world: 218 g), pointing to an energy mix close to the world average.

0.19 kg

CO₂ per dollar of GDP

Its economy emitted 0.19 kg of CO₂ for each dollar of output in 2022 (adjusted for purchasing power), 33% below the world average of 0.29 kg.

Questions and answers

How much CO₂ does Togo emit?

Togo emitted 2.8 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 Togo’s CO₂ emissions per person?

Togo emits 0.3 tonnes per person, 93% below the world average of 4.7 t. Per-person emissions divide the national total by population (8.4 million people in 2024).

Are Togo’s CO₂ emissions rising or falling?

Emissions rose 3.7% in 2024 compared with 2023. Compared with 2005, emissions are up 65%. 2024 was the highest year on record.

What is the main source of CO₂ emissions in Togo?

Oil is the largest source, at 54% of Togo’s fossil and industry CO₂ in 2024 (1.5 million tonnes).

What are Togo’s consumption-based CO₂ emissions?

About 8.6 million tonnes in 2023, 220% more than the 2.7 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 Togo contributed to historical CO₂ emissions?

Since 1750, Togo has emitted about 0 billion tonnes of fossil CO₂, 0.0% of the world total, the 152nd largest historical contribution.
