The mining and quarrying sector in Italy is forecasted to see a steady increase in the final consumption of primary solid biofuels from 2024 to 2028. Starting at 0.038 Terajoules in 2024, consumption is set to rise incrementally by roughly 5.26% to 0.044 Terajoules by 2028. The Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) over these five years stands modestly, indicating a gradual increase rather than significant year-to-year jumps. Prior data from 2023 is missing, making it difficult to draw comparisons or highlight substantial growth from current levels.

Future trends to watch for:

Potential policy changes favoring renewable energy sources, which could further boost solid biofuel consumption.
Technological advancements in biofuel efficiency within the mining sector.
Global and European market conditions influencing Italy's energy policies.
