The forecasted solid fossil fuels imports to Italy show a consistent decline from 2024 to 2028, moving from 71.71 thousand gigawatthours in 2024 to 65.24 thousand gigawatthours in 2028. Compared to 2023, where imports stood at 73.50 thousand gigawatthours, this reveals a steady downward trend. The year-on-year percentage changes are projected to be 2.29% for 2025, 2.33% for 2026, 2.41% for 2027, and 2.38% for 2028.

Future trends to watch for:

Italy’s potential shift towards renewable energy sources and its impact on fossil fuel imports.
The effect of EU energy policies and global market dynamics on Italy's energy import strategy.
Technological advancements and investments in energy efficiency that could further decrease dependence on solid fossil fuels.
