The coniferous fuelwood supply in France is projected to decline from 2.54 million cubic meters in 2024 to 2.25 million cubic meters by 2028, which marks a consistent decreasing trend. This represents a year-on-year decrease of approximately 3% to 4%. In 2023, the actual supply stood at a comparable level to the forecast for 2024, indicating a stable starting point for the forecasted period. Over the five-year span, the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) suggests a negative average annual change.
Future trends to watch:
- Impacts of climate policies on timber supply management.
- Market dynamics in renewable energy demand influencing fuelwood use.
- The sustainability and regulatory factors affecting forestry practices.
