In 2023, Italy led the European countries in gross electricity production from refinery gas at 26.13 GWh, followed by the Netherlands and Germany. Other significant contributors were the United Kingdom and Greece. Year-on-year, Romania and Portugal saw notable increases of over 5% and 17% respectively, while Poland and Croatia experienced significant declines, with Poland decreasing by over 15%. Over a five-year period, countries like Bulgaria and Portugal have seen substantial growth.
Looking forward, the focus will likely be on the response to fluctuations in energy demand, sustainability goals, and potential shifts in energy policies, which may influence refinery gas usage across European countries.
