Based on the forecast data, the available anthracite for final consumption in France is projected to steadily increase from 2024 to 2028. In 2023, the actual anthracite availability was lower than the forecasted 7.45 thousand terajoules in 2024. The year-on-year growth rates show a consistent increment, which underscores a positive trend, with substantial increases seen each year. The Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) over the five-year forecast period highlights this upward trajectory, indicating a healthy demand or strategic energy policy in place.
Future trends to watch for include potential shifts in energy policy that could influence coal demand, technological advancements in cleaner coal utilization, and global market dynamics such as price fluctuations and import-export changes that could impact the projected growth in anthracite availability.
