Climate Change Performance Index (CCPI):
The CCPI is an independent monitoring tool of countries' climate protection
performance. It aims to enhance transparency in international climate politics and enables the
comparability of climate protection efforts and progress made by individual countries.
These are the overall results of the Climate Change Performance Index 2019. The ranking results
are defined by a country’s aggregated performance regarding 14 indicators within the four
categories “GHG Emissions”, “Renewable Energy” and “Energy Use”, as well as on “Climate
Policy”, in a globally unique policy section of the index.
The CCPI 2019 results illustrate the main regional differences in climate protection and
performance within the 56 evaluated countries and the EU. No country performed well enough to
reach the ranking very good in this year’s index, meaning that no country has yet made it to one of
the top three places in the rankings.
In this year’s index, Sweden leads the ranking, followed by Morocco and Lithuania. The bottom five in this year’s CCPI are Saudi Arabia, the United States, Islamic Republic of Iran, Republic of Korea and Chinese Taipei, scoring low or very low across almost all categories.
