The total support on all fossil fuels for producers in Germany is forecasted to decline from $2.74 billion in 2024 to $2.0 billion in 2028, representing a year-on-year decrease of approximately 7.4% on average. This trend has been consistent with an overall Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of about -7.3% over five years, indicating a significant reduction from prior levels, as the support stood notably higher in 2023.

Future trends to watch for include:

Potential impact of carbon neutrality goals and environmental policies on fossil fuel support.
Shifts in energy prices that might influence government subsidy strategies.
Technology advancements in renewable energy potentially accelerating the decline in fossil fuel reliance.
