The forecast for industrial consumption of gas oil and diesel oil (excluding the biofuel portion) in the UK from 2024 to 2028 reflects a declining trend. Starting at 48.28 thousand terajoules in 2024, consumption is expected to decrease to 38.93 thousand terajoules by 2028. The data indicates a consistent year-on-year decrease, suggesting a shift towards decreased reliance on these energy sources. Compared to 2023, these values show a substantial decrease, emphasizing a transition already initiated.

Future trends to watch for include:

Increased adoption of renewable energy sources may further accelerate the decline in fossil fuel consumption.
Government policies aiming at reducing carbon emissions could play a significant role in shaping industrial energy use.
Technological advancements and energy efficiency measures might also contribute to this trend.
