In 2023, the final consumption of blended biodiesels in the wood and wood products sector in France was below 11.15 gigawatthours. The forecast from 2024 to 2028 suggests a steady increase in consumption, with notable year-on-year growth: 11.8% from 2024 to 2025, 10.5% from 2025 to 2026, 9.5% from 2026 to 2027, and 8.6% from 2027 to 2028. This implies a compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) of about 10% across the five-year period. This indicates a robust upward trend in the demand for blended biodiesels in the sector.
Future trends to watch for:
- Technological advancements in biodiesel production may drive further efficiency and cost-effectiveness, potentially accelerating adoption.
- Policy changes, such as incentives for renewable energy use, could significantly impact consumption patterns.
- Market responses to environmental sustainability goals might further enhance the sector's reliance on biodiesel.
