In 2023, Germany led European primary solid biofuels for final consumption, with notable contributions from France, Poland, and Italy. Year-on-year variations showed modest growth except in Poland and Belgium. Noteworthy increases were observed in Slovakia (19.91%) and Serbia (12.1%), while Germany registered a 2.4% increase.
