In 2023, Germany led European railway transport of gases with 8.77 million metric tons, followed by Poland (3.8) and France (3.33). Germany saw a modest 1.85% increase, while Poland's volume rose by 2.79%. Significant growth was noted in the Czech Republic (6.69%), Austria (8.48%), and Denmark (35.27%). France and Hungary experienced declines of 0.71% and 2.88%, respectively. At the bottom were Slovenia (0.025) and Norway (0.005), both witnessing reductions.
Future trends to watch include the impact of green transition policies on energy transport, fluctuating demand for gases, and the role of infrastructure investments in optimizing logistic efficiency across Europe's diverse railway networks. Monitoring policy changes and technological advancements will be crucial for understanding shifts in railway transport volumes by country.
