The motor gasoline refinery output in Austria saw various fluctuations between 2013 and 2023, starting at 1.53 million tonnes and rising to 1.9 million tonnes by 2023. After an initial decline in 2013, there was a notable increase in 2014. Although the output dipped slightly in 2015 and 2016, it generally trended upwards with significant growth observed in 2018 and 2019. The 2020 output was impacted by a sharp decline, likely due to pandemic-related disruptions, but it rebounded gradually in subsequent years, achieving a 5.35% year-on-year increase in 2022 and a further 2.4% in 2023.
Looking ahead, the forecasted data from 2024 to 2028 indicates a slight and steady decrease in refinery output, reflecting a 0.16% CAGR, suggesting a subtle downtrend. Future monitoring should focus on:
- Impact of climate change regulations on gasoline production
- Technological advancements in refining processes
- Market shifts towards alternative energy sources
- Global geopolitical and economic factors affecting oil prices and supply chains
