In 2023, the fuel oil final consumption in domestic navigation in France stood at a level from which future forecasts have been made. According to projections, consumption is expected to decline from 10.6 thousand tonnes of oil equivalent in 2024 to 9.96 thousand tonnes by 2028. Over the last two years, the year-on-year variation indicates a consistent downward trend. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over these five years shows a negative growth rate, reflecting a gradual decline in consumption.
Future trends to watch for include the potential impact of environmental regulations, advancements in alternative fuels, and shifts in transportation policies on fuel oil consumption in domestic navigation. These factors could accelerate the transition towards more sustainable energy sources and further influence the reduction in fuel oil usage in this sector.
