In 2023, Serbia leads the European consumption of primary solid biofuels in the textile and leather sectors with a usage of 18.69 thousand tonnes of oil equivalent, despite a slight decline of 1.66% year-over-year. Portugal and Spain follow, with minor declines in Portugal and a growth of 1.16% in Spain. Ukraine and Austria show significant growth of 28.01% and 29.09% respectively, while Germany also experiences a robust increase of 10.6%. The countries with negative trends include Bulgaria and Moldova, with declines of 6.33% and 17.81% respectively.
For future trends, expect continued emphasis on sustainability driving increased biofuel consumption, particularly in countries with current upward trends like Ukraine and Austria. The EU's focus on renewable energy targets will likely push traditional markets like Germany to further embrace biofuels. Countries with negative consumption trends may re-evaluate policies to align with sustainability goals, potentially reversing downward trends.
