China was the largest exporter of green industrial goods among developing economies in 2024, with exports valued at $410.5 billion. It was followed by Mexico ($72.5 billion), while Singapore ($29.7 billion), India ($27.4 billion) and Thailand ($25.9 billion) formed a second group of leading exporters with similar export values.

The ranking shows a marked gap between China and the other leading exporters. While China accounted for a substantial share of green industrial goods exports among developing economies, export values among the next largest exporters were considerably closer to one another.

Global green industrial goods exports increased from $429 billion in 2000 to $1 756 billion in 2024. This represents 8% of total merchandise trade worldwide. Europe recorded the highest share at around 9.5%, followed by Asia with almost 8% and the Americas at around 6%, while Africa and Oceania displayed comparatively lower shares at almost 1.8% and 1.5% respectively.

Despite the decrease in 2024, exports remain on a strong long-term upward path, with the latest level still among the highest recorded.
