The projected bioenergy final consumption in the non-ferrous metal sector in Italy is set to increase steadily from 2024 to 2028, starting at 18.16 Thousand Tonnes of Oil Equivalent in 2024 and reaching 20.08 by 2028. This reflects a consistent growth trend. Comparing the years, the year-on-year growth percentages are expected to remain modest, indicating a stable increase in the sector's reliance on bioenergy. With data on actual consumption not available for 2023, it can be inferred the 2023 baseline could be slightly less than 18.16 TTOE.
Future trends to watch for include technological advancements in bioenergy conversion, potential regulatory changes favoring renewable energy sources, and shifts in raw material supply chains, which could significantly influence the sector's energy consumption patterns.
