Energy-related CO2 Emission Accounts and Datasets for 40 Emerging Economies in 2010 - 2019

The Carbon Emission Accounts and Datasets for emerging economies (CEADs, https://ceads.net) aims to provide transparent, verifiable, open-access data on the CO₂ emissions of 40 emerging economies (accounting for 17.5% of the emissions and 12.9% of GDP of the world) for the period 2010-2019. Given the variety of statistical capacity among these countries, we standardized sectors using relevant data on energy and economic statistics and compiled emissions inventories at the regional level using sub-national statistics. For energy-related data, we included emissions from burning biomass, given its significance as an emissions source in these economies. The emissions dataset covers 47 economic sectors and 8 major energy categories in the 40 emerging economies, and in 28 we provide a subnational inventory. The emissions inventories are compiled for 47 economic sectors and 8 major categories.
