The forecasted electricity consumption by the chemical and petrochemical sector in France indicates a gradual decline from 2024 to 2028. The expected consumption starts at 65.93 thousand terajoules in 2024, dropping to 62.73 thousand terajoules by 2028. This represents a decrease of approximately 1.23% per year, based on the previous two years' data. This reflects an overarching trend of diminishing electricity use in this sector, following a consistent trajectory likely influenced by efficiency improvements and shifts in the sector's energy sources.
Future trends to watch include technological advancements that may further reduce electricity needs, policy changes promoting sustainable practices, and global market dynamics impacting production levels. Additionally, increasing integration of renewable energy sources could influence the sector's overall electricity consumption pattern.
