Key Market Indicators
Swiss nuclear power consumption is projected to hold steady at approximately 0.21 exajoules by 2028, reflecting a modest annual growth rate of 0.4% from 2023 levels. This marks a significant shift from the historical trend since 1974, during which Swiss nuclear demand has decreased annually by an average of 1.5%. In terms of nuclear generation, Switzerland is expected to produce around 25,400 gigawatt-hours by 2028, up from 24,900 gigawatt-hours in 2023. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) for nuclear generation is anticipated to be 0.3%. This is a continuation of the long-term trend observed since 1979, where nuclear supply has experienced a yearly increase of 0.4%. These projections underscore a relatively stable period for Swiss nuclear energy, contrasting with the notable decline in demand over the past few decades.
