The forecast for Liquefied Petroleum Gases (LPG) consumption in France's chemical and petrochemical sectors from 2024 to 2028 shows a gradual decline. Starting at 33.11 thousand tonnes of oil equivalent in 2024, it is expected to decrease each year to reach 31.88 thousand tonnes by 2028. This represents a decline of approximately 3.7% over the forecasted five-year period. As of 2023, the actual consumption stood slightly higher than the forecasted data for 2024, indicating a trend of decreasing demand in these industries.
Future trends to watch for include potential shifts toward more sustainable energy sources and innovations in LPG applications, which could impact consumption levels. Furthermore, policy changes and advancements in energy efficiency technologies might accelerate this declining trend in the chemical and petrochemical sectors.
