The expected imports are 117.0 thousand metric tons in 2024, growing modestly to 123.0 thousand metric tons by 2028. The year-on-year growth is relatively consistent, with minor percentage increases, reflecting steady demand.
Future trends to watch for include potential fluctuations in demand driven by sustainability initiatives, changes in sourcing strategies, or shifts in consumer preferences towards alternative energy sources. Additionally, geopolitical factors and supply chain dynamics may affect import levels, offering both risks and opportunities for stakeholders.
