The forecast for natural gas available for final consumption in France indicates a gradual decline from 2024 to 2028. This declining trend is evidenced by a year-on-year percentage decrease, with values dropping from 28.43 million tonnes of oil equivalent in 2024 to 27.77 in 2028. Comparing 2024 forecasts with the actual 2023 data, it is essential to note that inventories have trended downward. The CAGR over the last 5 years, when actualized, will reveal the average annual change, illustrating the broader trend of diminishing natural gas availability.
Future trends to watch for include the impact of renewable energy initiatives and energy efficiency measures, which could further influence natural gas consumption patterns. Monitoring policy changes, technological advancements, and market dynamics will be crucial for a comprehensive understanding of future shifts in natural gas availability.
