Vietnam's total carbon dioxide emissions stood at 0.37 kilograms of CO2 per USD PPP=2010 in 2023. Forecasted data indicates that emissions will remain stable at 0.37 in 2024 and 2025, before increasing slightly to 0.38 from 2026 to 2028. This represents a mild upward trend in emissions intensity over the next five years.
Notable trends and percentages:
- No year-on-year change is projected from 2023 to 2024, nor from 2024 to 2025.
- A slight 2.7% year-on-year increase is projected from 2025 to 2026, with emissions remaining stable thereafter.
- The five-year CAGR is minimal, indicating overall stability in emissions intensity with slight upward pressure.
Future trends to watch for:
Keep an eye on Vietnam's energy policies, renewable energy adoption, and economic growth patterns, as these factors could either mitigate the increase in emissions intensity or exacerbate it. Additionally, international climate agreements and technological advancements in carbon capture and storage could play a significant role in shaping future emissions trajectories.
