In 2023, the UK's natural gas gross inland consumption stood at approximately 2.74 million terajoules. Forecasted data indicate a consistent decline from 2024 to 2028, with values decreasing from 2.721 to 2.657 million terajoules. Year-on-year variations indicate a decreasing trend as each subsequent year records a slight reduction in consumption. The average compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over this five-year period depicts a subtle but continuous contraction in consumption levels.
Future trends to watch for include potential impacts of energy policy changes aimed at reducing reliance on fossil fuels, technological advancements in energy efficiency, and shifts towards renewable energy sources, all of which could further influence natural gas consumption patterns in the UK.
