Forecasts from 2024 to 2028 indicate a continuous decline, with values decreasing from 4.77% in 2024 to 4.16% by 2028. Year-on-year percentage reductions are observed in the forecasted period. This trend represents a compounded average decrease year-on-year over the projected five-year span.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Potential policy changes that could further impact fossil fuel support.
