In 2023, the non-renewable industrial waste final consumption in Italy's non-metallic minerals sector stood at XX thousand gigawatt hours. From 2024 onwards, the consumption is projected to rise from 2.41 thousand gigawatt hours to 2.61 thousand gigawatt hours by 2028. This indicates a steady annual growth trend, with each year showing a consistent increase of approximately 2.07% from the previous year. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) for the five-year forecast period is estimated at 2.02%.

Future trends to watch for:

Increased focus on sustainability might affect consumption patterns, potentially slowing growth or shifting towards alternative materials.
Technological advancements in recycling processes might reduce reliance on non-renewable industrial waste.
Regulatory changes at the EU level could impact the sector's dynamics, encouraging more efficient use of resources.
