The data indicates that direct transfers on natural gas in Italy are forecasted to increase from $1.77 billion in 2024 to $2.26 billion by 2028, measured in constant 2020 US dollars. Compared to the last known value from 2023, this demonstrates a steady positive growth trend. The year-on-year growth rates are projected to be approximately 6.78% from 2024 to 2025, 6.88% from 2025 to 2026, 5.94% from 2026 to 2027, and 5.61% from 2027 to 2028.
