In 2023, the carbon dioxide emissions in Egypt stood at 244.68 million metric tons. Observing the year-on-year variations, there was a slight increase of 1.91%, continuing a trend of modest annual growth. Notably, the five-year compound annual growth rate (CAGR) from 2018 to 2023 was 1.89%, indicating steady increases in emissions. Looking back, the years between 2013 and 2023 show a consistent upward trend with some fluctuations but an overall growth trajectory in CO2 emissions.
Looking ahead, the forecasted data indicates that carbon dioxide emissions will continue to rise, albeit at a slower pace. The forecast for the five-year CAGR from 2023 to 2028 is 1.33%, suggesting a deceleration in the growth rate of emissions. However, the total growth rate over this period is expected to be 6.84%, reflecting sustained increases in emissions volumes.
Future trends to watch for:
- Potential implementation of stricter environmental regulations that could impact emission levels.
- Adoption of renewable energy sources and their effect on carbon dioxide emissions.
- Economic developments and industrial activities that might influence the rate of emissions growth.
