The forecast for petroleum coke final consumption in the machinery sector in France shows a steady increase from 2024 to 2028, starting at 620.0 tonnes of oil equivalent in 2024 and reaching 640.0 tonnes by 2028. This represents a year-on-year increase of approximately 1.6% until 2025, with stability observed in subsequent years. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over this period is relatively modest. The value in 2023 set the baseline for this trend, illustrating a continued reliance on petroleum coke in the machinery sector amidst efforts towards energy diversification.
Future trends to monitor include advancements in machinery technology, which may demand cleaner or alternative energy sources, potentially impacting petroleum coke consumption. Furthermore, policy shifts towards environmental sustainability could influence sector dynamics and consumption volumes.
