In 2023, the consumption of renewables and biofuels in the textile and leather sector in Germany stood below 2.92 thousand tonnes of oil equivalent. The forecast indicates a gradual and consistent increase in consumption from 2024 to 2028, with values rising from 2.92 to 2.99. This represents a modest but steady year-on-year growth, with near 0.68% annual increase and a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) over five years of around 0.6%.
Looking ahead, potential trends to watch for include technological advancements in renewable energy integration within production processes, policy shifts promoting sustainable manufacturing practices, and the increasing economic viability of biofuels. These factors might accelerate the adoption and consumption rate beyond current forecasts.
