In 2023, the non-renewable industrial waste final consumption in the non-metallic minerals sector in France was recorded at 4.48 thousand gigawatthours. From 2024 onwards, the consumption is forecasted to increase incrementally each year, reaching 5.13 thousand gigawatthours by 2028. This represents a steady year-on-year growth, with an observable annual growth rate hovering around 2.8%. Over the five-year period from 2024 to 2028, the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) indicates a consistent upward trend in the sector's energy demands.
Future trends to watch in this sector include potential technological advancements aiming to improve energy efficiency and changes in regulatory policies impacting non-renewable energy consumption. Additionally, increased efforts towards sustainability may gradually shift focus towards renewable energy sources, potentially influencing the long-term trajectory of non-renewable energy use in this sector.
