A Singapore Government Agency Website

How to identify

Official website links end with .gov.sg

Government agencies communicate via .gov.sg websites (e.g. go.gov.sg/open). Trusted websites

Secure websites use HTTPS

Look for a lock () or https:// as an added precaution. Share sensitive information only on official, secure websites.

Scam alert

Government officers will never ask you to send money or share your details over the phone. When unsure, hang up and call Scamshield at 1799.

Greenhouse Gas Emissions By Gas Type, Annual

Data from Jan 2000 to Dec 2023

Last updated: 15 Apr 2026, 21:01 SGT

SINGSTAT (Singapore Department of Statistics)

Source: NATIONAL ENVIRONMENT AGENCY

Data Last Updated: 30/12/2025

Update Frequency: Annual

Footnotes: Estimated using 2006 Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Guidelines for National Greenhouse Gas Inventories and Global Warming Potential values from the IPCC 5th Assessment Report. In accordance with 2006 IPCC Guidelines, figures may be periodically updated as more accurate data are made available. As some figures are considerably small, they may be presented as '0.0' due to rounding.
