In 2023, exports of biomass for food and feed in France stood at an approximate volume slightly lower than the values forecasted for 2024. Looking ahead, forecasts indicate gradual year-on-year growth in exports: 77.53 million metric tons in 2024, reaching 78.44 million metric tons by 2028, revealing steady growth.
This translates to an average annual growth rate (CAGR) of around 0.29% over the five years. Such modest yet consistent growth suggests a stable export landscape for biomass in France.
Future trends to monitor include changing EU regulations on biomass, technological advancements in biomass processing, and potential shifts in global demand influenced by dietary changes and sustainability needs.
