In 2023, Germany's fossil energy gross heat production stood at 102.67 thousand Gigawatthours. The forecast data from 2024 to 2028 indicates a gradual decline, with a year-on-year decrease of approximately 1.13% on average. Over the five-year span, the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) is a decline of about 1.14% per year. This downward trend reflects continued efforts for transitioning towards renewable energy and enhancing energy efficiency.

Future trends to watch for:

Continued governmental policies favoring renewable energy sources could accelerate the decline in fossil energy production.
Technological advancements in energy storage and grid management may further impact fossil energy demand.
Economic and industrial activity levels will also play a crucial role in shaping energy needs.
