The forecast for heat final consumption in Germany's non-metallic minerals sector shows a steady increase in energy use from 2024 to 2028. Starting from 1.75 thousand terajoules in 2024, the consumption is predicted to grow to 2.10 thousand terajoules by 2028. This marks a continuous upward trend, with year-on-year percentage changes indicating a consistent rise each year. In 2023, this consumption stood below the 2024 forecast. The Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) over these years suggests an average annual growth, reflecting increased demand or activity within this sector.
Future trends to watch include technological advancements that could impact energy efficiency, regulatory changes affecting energy consumption, and economic factors influencing the building and construction industries. Observing these factors will be essential to understand their potential effects on energy demand in the non-metallic minerals sector.
