In 2024, Germany leads European consumption of solid fossil fuels in transport equipment at 81.94 terajoules, while the UK follows with 8.91 terajoules. Poland shows significant year-on-year growth with a rise of 13.25%, contrasting with the UK's decline of 4.6%. Sweden also experienced a notable decrease of 7.49%. Ukraine's demand remains stable at 0.73 terajoules. Notably, Bosnia and Herzegovina displays year-on-year growth of 7.04%. Bulgaria, though minimal in consumption, faced a substantial decrease of 26.2% over the past year.
Future trends to observe include Germany’s continued dominance and Poland's growing consumption, despite the EU’s broader shift to renewable energy sources. Attention should also be paid to developments in environmental policy which could further impact fossil fuel use in the transport sector.
