The forecast for fresh groundwater abstraction in the services sector in France shows a consistent decline from 2024 to 2028. Starting from a value of 1.39 cubic meters per capita in 2024, the abstraction is expected to decrease gradually to 0.81 cubic meters per capita by 2028. This trend signals an average annual decline, reflecting increased efficiency or possibly more stringent regulations in water usage.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Technological advancements improving water usage efficiency in the services sector.
- Potential policy changes affecting water management and usage.
- Environmental factors that might influence groundwater availability and abstraction.
