The forecast for bioenergy final consumption in the iron and steel sectors in Italy indicates a steady decline from 2024 to 2028, decreasing from 1.28 to 1.09 Thousand Gigawatthours. This reflects a continuous annual reduction in bioenergy consumption. Year-on-year percentage variations demonstrate a consistent downward trend, with each succeeding year experiencing approximately a 3.9% decrease on average over this period. The Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) from 2024 to 2028 is negative, underscoring a weakening in bioenergy demand within these sectors.
Future trends to watch for include technological advancements in energy efficiency and a potential increase in alternative renewable energy sources, which may further influence bioenergy consumption rates. Additionally, policy shifts relating to energy transitions in the EU may also impact these figures significantly in the coming years.
