Emissions from individual sources in Ghana — power stations, mines, refineries, cement works, landfills, farms and roads — estimated from satellite observation, in tonnes of CO2 equivalent, with the coordinates of each asset. The ESG dataset that names the emitter. Sourced from Climate TRACE, via HDX (CC BY 4.0). 2454 records.
