In the French non-ferrous metal sector, bioenergy final consumption is projected to increase steadily from 19.47 thousand tonnes of oil equivalent in 2024 to 21.49 thousand tonnes of oil equivalent in 2028. This consistent rise represents an average annual growth rate (CAGR) of approximately 2.5% over the five-year period. The sector recorded a slight year-on-year growth of about 2.6% from 2024 to 2025 and 2.5% from 2025 to 2026, indicating a stable upward trend that is expected to continue as the sector increasingly shifts towards sustainable energy solutions.
Future trends to watch for include the impact of policy changes on renewable energy incentives, advancements in bioenergy technologies, and the sector's adaptation to and integration of these innovations to meet environmental targets. Additionally, monitoring the global metal market's demand and France's economic conditions will be crucial in anticipating potential fluctuations in bioenergy consumption levels.
