The national road freight volume of gases in France is forecasted to decrease from 283.0 thousand units in 2024 to 230.0 thousand units by 2028. This indicates a steady decline over these five years. Compared to the actual 2023 figures, this represents a continuing downward trend. Year-on-year percentage changes show a consistent decrease of approximately 5% to 6% annually from 2024 onwards. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the 5-year period suggests an average annual decrease, indicating declining demand or shifts in logistics or transportation methods.
Future trends to watch include potential shifts in energy sources, regulatory changes affecting the transportation of gases, advancements in sustainable transportation, and economic factors affecting demand for gases. Monitoring such factors might provide insights into reversing or mitigating this downward trend in road freight volume.
