In 2023, Germany's blended biodiesel gross inland consumption stood at a relatively modest level. However, the forecast for 2024 to 2028 indicates a gradual year-on-year decrease in consumption, averaging a decline of approximately 3% annually. The consumption trend from 2024 to 2028 shows a consistent decrease, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) reflecting the decrease in consumption during this period.
Future trends to watch include:
- Regulatory changes impacting biodiesel usage and incentives.
- Advancements in alternative renewable energy sources potentially decreasing biodiesel reliance.
- Technological improvements in biodiesel production that could reverse current consumption declines.
