The UK agriculture and forestry sector's final consumption of primary solid biofuels is expected to decrease steadily from 3.86 thousand terajoules in 2024 to 3.45 thousand terajoules by 2028. The year-on-year decrease is relatively consistent, with an average annual decline of around 2.8% over the forecasted period. This downward trend indicates a gradual reduction in the sector's reliance on primary solid biofuels.
Future trends to watch for:
- Government policies or subsidies promoting renewable energy could alter the anticipated decline.
- Technological advancements in biofuel efficiency could influence consumption trends.
- Economic factors impacting the availability and cost of alternative energy sources might shift the reliance on biofuels.
