The forecasted liquefied petroleum gases (LPG) availability for final consumption in Italy indicates a gradual decline from 40.83 thousand gigawatthours in 2024 to 40.42 by 2028. From 2024 to 2025, the year-on-year decrease is 0.24%, and the following years show similar small declines. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over this period is approximately -0.25%, signaling a slight downward trend. In 2023, the value stood at approximately 41.01 thousand gigawatthours. These projections suggest restrained and consistent consumption contraction in the coming years.
Future trends to watch:
- Potential technological advancements in energy efficiency could further decrease LPG consumption.
- Policy shifts towards renewable energy sources may accelerate the decline in LPG demand.
- Industrial shifts and economic factors may impact overall energy consumption patterns in Italy.
