The analysis of European fossil energy final consumption in the wood and wood products sector shows Germany and Poland as the largest consumers, despite experiencing slight declines in 2023. Italy's consumption has seen a positive trend with a notable increase, while Spain and the UK show modest growth. Countries like Belgium, Croatia, and Sweden experienced significant upward trends. Conversely, Romania, Latvia, and Finland saw reductions in consumption. Emerging fluctuations, such as a dramatic rise in Luxembourg and notable growth in Macedonia and Montenegro, are worth noting for mid-to-small markets.
Future trends to watch: Emphasis on sustainability may drive EU objectives, potentially decreasing fossil-based energy consumption. Efficiency improvements and renewables will likely play significant roles, with countries pursuing aggressive carbon reduction targets. Variability in economic recovery and regulatory changes could further influence the energy landscape.
