In 2023, France's biomass trade balance stood at a deficit, with the actual trade value negatively impacting metric tons significantly. As we transition to 2024, forecasts indicated a consistent decrease in the deficit, dropping slightly each year toward 2028. The year-on-year decrease reflects a steady improvement as France potentially increases its biomass production capacity or decreases imports. The past two-year trend positively shifted, suggesting improvements in domestic policy or technology adjustments.
Future trends to watch include:
- Technological innovations reducing biomass production costs.
- Policy changes promoting sustainable biomass usage.
- Global biomass market shifts affecting trade dynamics.
