In 2023, Ukraine led European electricity consumption in mining and quarrying, with notable increases in Serbia, Ireland, and Albania. Countries like Sweden, Austria, and Czech Republic saw declines. This suggests varied transformations in the mining sectors across Europe, with Eastern Europe showing growth. Over the past five years, consumption trends have been influenced by economic and technological changes.
Future trends to watch include increased electrification driven by sustainable practices and the potential impact of new regulations aimed at reducing carbon emissions. Technological advancements and investment in renewable energies may further shape consumption patterns in this sector across Europe.
