The transport equipment sector's final consumption of natural gas in Poland reached 4.82 thousand Terajoules in 2023. Over the past several years, there has been significant fluctuation, with notable increases in 2016 and 2017 and a peak in 2018. The year-on-year variations have been fairly volatile with a 1.36% increase from 2022 to 2023. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) for the last five years, encompassing both rises and declines, is estimated around -2.96% indicating a general downturn in recent years.
Future trends suggest a moderate but steady growth in natural gas consumption in this sector, with a forecasted 5-year CAGR of 1%. Watching for enhancements in energy efficiency within the sector and potential shifts towards alternative energy sources could significantly impact future natural gas consumption rates.
