In 2023, Ukraine led in heat final consumption in the iron and steel sectors with 13.54 TWh despite a slight decline of 1.41%. Italy showed strong growth with a 15.08% increase, reaching 2.11 TWh. Finland and Czech Republic also noted modest increases. Conversely, Serbia and Hungary experienced notable declines, while Germany and France observed minor growth. Other countries such as Latvia and Norway registered decreases, reflecting diverse trajectories across Europe.
Looking ahead, rising industrial energy efficiency and a transition toward greener production methods might impact heat consumption patterns. Countries investing in renewable energy technologies may see reduced heat demand in the iron and steel sectors.
