In 2023, the final consumption of renewables and biofuels in Germany's non-metallic minerals sector stood at 6.44 thousand gigawatthours. The forecast from 2024 to 2028 indicates a steady increase, with values rising from 6.61 to 7.26 thousand gigawatthours. The year-on-year variations show gradual growth, suggesting increasing integration of renewables. The 5-year CAGR (Compound Annual Growth Rate) is anticipated to reflect a modest but consistent uptick in consumption.
Future trends to watch for include technological advancements improving energy efficiency and potentially altering consumption patterns. Additionally, policy shifts toward further sustainability mandates may accelerate the transition to renewable energy usage in the sector.
