The forecasted data for 2024 shows that the Czech Republic will continue to have the highest lignite final consumption by households, despite a significant decrease of 6.05% in 2023. Countries like Hungary and Romania have shown positive growth, with Hungary experiencing a modest increase of 0.67% and Romania rising by 6.21%. In contrast, Slovakia saw the largest decline at 35.58%, followed by Serbia and Bulgaria with declines of 13.44% and 11.62% respectively. This suggests a decreasing trend in lignite consumption across most of these European countries over the recent years.
Future trends indicate that policies focused on cleaner energy sources and environmental sustainability might further decrease lignite consumption by households. Countries may increasingly shift to alternative energy resources, driven by regulatory environment and market demand, potentially impacting the overall consumption trends in the coming years.
