Greece saw minimal change at 0.98%, while Azerbaijan and Moldova experienced decreases of -2.97% and -5.99%, respectively. Mexico had a noteworthy rise of 12.54%, and Belgium followed closely with an increase of 11.38%.

Future trends to watch include the potential for increased support in emerging markets, particularly those that saw substantial rises in 2023, like South Africa and Armenia. Developing countries might also innovate to stabilize or grow support further. Exploration of renewable energy sources and government policies on energy subsidies may also play a crucial role in shaping future dynamics.
