In 2023, Germany imported approximately 14.15 million kilograms of not self-propelled coal or rock cutters. The forecast anticipates an import volume rise from 14.711 million kilograms in 2024 to 16.904 million kilograms by 2028. Year-on-year, this reflects an approximate increase of 3.8% from 2024 to 2025, 3.62% from 2025 to 2026, 3.42% from 2026 to 2027, and 3.25% from 2027 to 2028. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over these five years is projected at 3.52%.
Future trends to consider include technological advancements in mining equipment, evolving environmental policies, and market shifts due to Germany's energy transition, potentially affecting the import dynamics of mining machinery.
