As of 2023, Germany's gas oil and diesel oil (excluding biofuel) stood at a level distinctly higher than future projected values. Starting from 2024, the forecast anticipates a declining trend with a consistent decrease in consumption. The consumption values drop from 513.48 thousand gigawatt-hours in 2024 to 452.72 thousand gigawatt-hours by 2028, indicating a significant reduction over the forecast period. The average annual change rate shows a negative compound annual growth rate (CAGR), highlighting the downward trajectory.

Future trends to watch for include:

Increasing adoption of renewable energy and alternative fuels, which could further reduce gas oil and diesel oil consumption.
Potential policy shifts or environmental regulations that could accelerate this decline.
Technological advancements in energy efficiency that might alter consumption patterns.
