In 2023, the fossil energy final consumption in Germany's agriculture and forestry sectors stood at around 34.2 thousand Gigawatthours. An analysis of the forecasted data from 2024 to 2028 shows a steady annual increase in consumption, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of approximately 4.1%. Specifically, the year-on-year growth rates are as follows: 2025 sees a 4.9% increase, 2026 observes a 4.6% increase, 2027 a 4.4% increase, and 2028 a 4.2% increase.
Future trends to watch for include the impact of energy transition policies on fossil fuel dependencies within the sector. Adapting to renewable energy sources could alter these projections if technology and policy advancement accelerates beyond current expectations. Monitoring shifts in energy efficiency and diversification strategies will be critical for long-term consumption predictions.
