The forecast for fuel oil available for final consumption in France from 2024 to 2028 shows a consistent decline. Starting at 994.52 thousand tonnes of oil equivalent in 2024, it decreases to 728.88 thousand tonnes by 2028. This represents a diminishing trend, with year-on-year decreases reflecting a declining consumption rate. In 2023, the actual value stood at 1063.25, marking a significant drop to forecasted levels. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over this five-year period indicates an average yearly decrease, pointing to persistent reductions in fuel oil availability.
Future trends to watch include the impact of energy diversification, sustainable energy policies, and technological advancements in energy efficiency, which may further accelerate the decline in fuel oil consumption as France shifts towards greener alternatives.
