The production-based CO2 emissions in Chile have shown considerable fluctuation over the past decade. In 2023, emissions were recorded at 90.02 million metric tons, marking a 1.78% increase from the previous year. Between 2018 and 2023, the Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) for emissions stood at 0.97%, indicating a moderate rise. Over a longer period, the emissions have generally trended upwards despite some year-to-year variations, reflecting an overall increase in industrial and production activities.
Future trends to watch for include the impact of renewable energy adoption, governmental policies on carbon emissions, and technological advancements in emission reduction. These factors could influence the forecasted CAGR of 1.29% over the next five years, potentially altering the projected growth rate of 6.6% by 2028. Monitoring these elements will be crucial in anticipating and mitigating future emissions.
