In 2023, Sweden and Finland were leading in the final consumption of European Primary Solid Biofuels in the paper, pulp, and printing sectors, with modest year-on-year growth. Other notable players like Spain and the UK showed significant increases, while Poland and Germany experienced declines. Remarkable growth was observed in countries with smaller shares like Hungary, Denmark, Romania, Latvia, and Ukraine, showcasing double-digit percentage increases. Conversely, reductions in consumption were noted in Slovenia, Bulgaria, and Moldova.
Future trends to watch include potential shifts toward increased biofuel usage driven by sustainability goals and technological advancements. Monitoring policy changes and innovations in energy efficiency may further influence consumption patterns across countries.
