The forecast for fossil energy final consumption in the machinery sector in Germany indicates a consistent downward trend from 2024 to 2028, with a gradual reduction each year. By 2024, consumption is expected to be at 39.16 thousand gigawatt-hours, declining year-on-year, with 2028 projected at 37.39 thousand gigawatt-hours. In 2023, consumption stood slightly higher than 39 thousand gigawatt-hours, showing an incremental decrease going forward. The year-on-year percentage decrease over these years highlights a steady decline in energy consumption within the machinery sector.
Future trends to watch for include the impact of Germany's energy transition policies, advances in machinery efficiency, and potential shifts to renewable energy sources, which could further accelerate the reduction of fossil fuel consumption in this sector.
