In 2023, Germany led the European Union in the final consumption of blended biodiesels in construction, clocking in at 24.69 terajoules, followed closely by France at 22.66 terajoules. Sweden and the Netherlands also demonstrated significant consumption with 18.53 and 15.59 terajoules respectively. Year-on-year variations reveal notable increases in Germany and the Netherlands at 9.62% and 9.3%, with Spain observing an 8.13% rise. Conversely, minor changes were noted in countries like Austria and Greece. Over the last five years, compounded annual growth rates suggest stable upward trends across these nations, particularly in Portugal which experienced a remarkable 10.53% increase in 2023.
Looking ahead, as environmental regulations tighten and technological advancements emerge, we anticipate a continued growth in the consumption of blended biodiesels across Europe. The demand will likely be driven by expanding construction activities coupled with a strong emphasis on sustainability. There will also be heightened focus on reducing carbon footprints, which could stimulate further adoption of biodiesels in countries currently exhibiting minimal usage.
