In 2023, France's wind power gross inland consumption was 3.54 million tonnes of oil equivalent. The forecast for 2024 to 2028 shows a steady increase: from 3.71 in 2024 to 4.4 in 2028. Year-on-year growth rates indicate consistent increases, averaging around 4-5%. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over this period suggests a gradual rise in wind power adoption as part of France’s energy mix.
Future trends to watch for:
- Advancements in wind technology and reduced costs could accelerate wind power growth.
- Government policies and energy transition strategies will influence the trajectory of wind power consumption.
- Public acceptance and investment in infrastructure will play critical roles.
