In 2023, Spain leads fossil energy consumption in domestic aviation with a consumption rate of 2.44 million tonnes of oil equivalent, followed by France and the United Kingdom. Year-on-year, Ukraine exhibited the most significant increase at 33.37%, while Bulgaria declined by 7.01%. Over the past five years, countries like Hungary, Latvia, and Ukraine showed the most considerable average annual growth, indicating recovery or expansion in their domestic aviation sectors. Conversely, most Western European countries experienced either minor changes or subtle declines, reflecting saturation or sustainable energy transitions.
Looking forward, it is crucial to monitor how European countries balance domestic aviation demands with sustainability goals. The shift towards greener fuels and technology, along with regulatory impacts, will shape consumption patterns. Countries with current high consumption rates might experience stabilization, while others could see growth spurred by advancements in eco-friendly aviation technologies.
