In 2023, Germany's Domestic Material Consumption (DMC) of biomass stood at an estimated 3.05 thousand kilograms per capita. The forecasted figures from 2024 to 2028 show a gradual decline from 3.03 to 2.97 thousand kilograms per capita, indicating a cautious year-on-year decrease. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) for biomass consumption over this five-year period is expected to be negative, reflecting a slow but steady downward trend.
Future trends to watch for include:
- The impact of Germany's renewable energy policies on biomass consumption.
- Technological advancements in biomass utilization.
- Potential changes in environmental regulations that could further influence material consumption patterns.
