From 2013 to 2023, the availability of natural gas for final consumption in Sweden exhibited fluctuations with notable peaks in 2017 and 2020, driven primarily by external factors. In 2023, the availability stood at 10.81 thousand gigawatthours, showing a modest year-on-year increase of 1.02%. Over the last two years, the market demonstrated slight volatility with a 10.1% rise in 2022 followed by this modest growth in 2023. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the last five years indicates a steady but moderate increase at 2.8%, pointing to overall market extension.
Forecast data suggest a continued upward trend with the availability expected to reach 11.34 thousand gigawatthours by 2028. The forecasted five-year CAGR of 0.76% reflects a slower growth rate compared to historical data but still indicates gradual expansion. Key future trends to watch include advancements in renewable energy, regulatory changes, and shifts in consumer demand which could impact natural gas consumption dynamics in Sweden.
