The forecast for natural gas domestic extraction in Germany shows a continuous decline from 2024 to 2028. In 2023, the actual value stood at 0.037 metric tons per capita. The year-on-year variation between 2024 and 2025 shows a 22.9% decrease, decreasing further by 25.9% from 2025 to 2026, 35% from 2026 to 2027, and 53.8% from 2027 to 2028.
