The tax expenditure on end-use electricity in Germany is forecasted to decrease steadily from 2024 to 2028, beginning at 1.63 billion US dollars in 2024 and dropping to 1.21 billion US dollars by 2028. This reflects a significant trend of year-on-year decline: 6.1% from 2024 to 2025, 7.2% from 2025 to 2026, 7.7% from 2026 to 2027, and 7.6% from 2027 to 2028. For context, 2023 actual figures were not provided, so forecasting relies entirely on these projected trajectories.

Future trends to watch for:

The impact of renewable energy expansion and efficiency measures on electricity tax policies.
Potential regulatory changes or economic factors influencing the decline in tax expenditures.
How technological advancements in energy consumption might further alter tax implications.
