In 2023, France led European nuclear heat consumption with 102.93 Mtoe, but saw a slight decrease of 0.89%. Ukraine and Germany also reported declines at 1.35% and 2.66% respectively. On the contrary, Belgium and Slovakia experienced growth with 4.76% and 1.81% respectively. Spain recorded a minor increase at 0.7%. The Netherlands, though with a small baseline, saw a notable rise of 2.27%, suggesting emerging trends in minor markets.
Future trends to watch include potential shifts as countries transition to renewable sources, geopolitical impacts on nuclear policy in Ukraine, and the gradual decommissioning of older nuclear facilities, particularly in Germany and the UK.
