In 2023, Germany led in European gas oil and diesel oil consumption within the commercial and public services sectors with a significant increase of 9.44%, surpassing 190 thousand terajoules. Conversely, France and Belgium experienced declines of 3.41% and 3.49% respectively. Notably, Portugal and Bosnia and Herzegovina showed robust growth, with Portugal seeing a 12.15% rise and Bosnia and Herzegovina a remarkable 14.72%. Significant decreases were recorded in Denmark and Croatia, with declines over 16%. Overall, a mixed trend is evident with several countries showing substantial year-on-year variability.
Looking forward, monitoring sustainability measures and alternative fuel adoption will be critical. The impact of economic conditions, energy policies, and advancements in energy efficiency technologies will shape consumption dynamics across Europe. A focus on reducing fossil fuel dependence could significantly alter the landscape of gas oil and diesel oil use in the commercial and public sectors.
