The carbon intensity of the power sector in Estonia has been on a mostly downward trend since the beginning of the century. In 2022, Estonia's power sector emissions totaled 416 grams of carbon dioxide per kilowatt-hour (gCO₂/KWh) of electricity generated, a decline of roughly 34 percent in comparison to the year 2000. Despite the decreasing tendency, the power sector in Estonia has one of the highest carbon-intensive power sectors in the EU.
