Key Market Indicators
German coal production is projected to rise to 1.22 exajoules by 2028, up from 1.21 exajoules in 2023. This marks a modest annual growth rate of 0.1%. Historically, the German coal industry has faced a steady decline. Since 1986, coal supply in the country has decreased at an average annual rate of 5.2%. Despite this long-term downward trend, the slight uptick expected over the next five years suggests a temporary stabilization in production.
