In 2023, Germany's non-renewable municipal waste gross heat production stood at a certain level, and from 2024 onwards, forecasted data indicate a steady increase. The projected values are 978.8 by 2024, 1010.0 by 2025, 1030.0 by 2026, 1060.0 by 2027, and 1090.0 by 2028, all expressed in thousand tonnes of oil equivalent. This escalation reflects a consistent upward trend over the four-year period.

The average year-on-year growth rates are anticipated to sustain a reliable upward trajectory, suggesting stability in the expansion rate over the foresight period. The compound annual growth rate is projected to reflect this consistent progression over the designated five-year span.

Future trends to watch for include:

Technological advancements in waste-to-energy conversion efficiency
Policy changes favoring increased renewable energy adoption
Potential shifts in waste management practices impacting non-renewable waste streams
Global and domestic economic factors influencing waste production volumes
