In 2023, Poland led European solid fossil fuel production with 1.6458 million terajoules, followed by Germany and the Czech Republic. Notable year-on-year declines were seen in Germany (-8.91%) and Ukraine (-8.5%), while Greece exhibited the largest drop at -13.53%. Conversely, Kosovo and Montenegro demonstrated growth in production. The Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) over the past five years highlights a downward trend in most countries, reflecting a shift away from solid fossil fuels.
Looking ahead, trends to monitor include the increasing shift towards renewable energy sources, EU policy impacts on fossil fuel usage, and technological advancements in cleaner energy alternatives. These factors will shape the future trajectory of solid fossil fuel production in Europe.
