In 2024, Italy leads European national road freight volume of gases with 21.7 million vehicle-kilometers, followed by Poland and Germany. Notable growth occurred in the Netherlands (12.3%) and Greece (7.31%) from 2023. Conversely, the United Kingdom, Spain, and France experienced declines. Ireland's volume notably dropped by 100%. Over the last five years, growth rates varied, with certain nations outperforming others, indicating uneven demand shifts across Europe.
Looking ahead, economic recovery and green energy transitions may impact freight volumes. New environmental regulations and technology advancements could further influence country-specific trends in gas transport volumes on roads. Europe should focus on infrastructure improvements to accommodate fluctuating demand and technological integration.
