In the UK, the natural gas final consumption in the non-metallic minerals sector is forecasted to experience a minimal increase from 12.8 Thousand Gigawatthours in 2024 to 12.87 Thousand Gigawatthours in 2028. This represents a slight upward trend with a consistent year-on-year growth pattern. As of 2023, the actual consumption serves as a baseline reference for these projections.
Future trends to watch for include potential impacts of regulatory changes, technological advances in efficiency, and shifts in the broader energy market, which could either bolster or inhibit growth in natural gas consumption within this sector.
