The European agriculture and forestry sectors have exhibited significant variation in the final consumption of solid fossil fuels across countries in 2023. Poland remains the highest consumer, despite a notable 7.79% decrease. Bulgaria and Moldova showed positive growth, at 1.45% and 9.06%, respectively, whereas Denmark, Hungary, and Estonia experienced double-digit declines. Belgium, Lithuania, and France had moderate declines, hinting at a broader regional shift away from fossil fuels.
Future trends to watch for:
- A continued decline in solid fossil fuel consumption driven by policies favoring cleaner energy sources.
- Potential increases in energy efficiency and adoption of alternative energy in agriculture and forestry sectors.
- Varying paces of transformation across countries due to differing national energy policies and capabilities.
