In France, non-renewable municipal waste production is projected to rise incrementally from 2024 to 2028, starting at 1.32 Mtoe in 2024 and reaching 1.4 Mtoe by 2028. The consistent annual growth reflects an average year-on-year increase of approximately 1.52%. Compared to the estimated figures, there was a significant upward trend noted from preceding years, based on the forecasted compound annual growth rate (CAGR) for the period from 2024 to 2028 being similar.

Trends to watch for include:

Implementation of stricter waste management regulations potentially invert the increasing trajectory.
Technological advances in recycling and waste-to-energy conversion could alter future forecasts.
Behavioral shifts towards reducing waste generation could influence the market significantly.
