In 2023, Germany led the European national road freight volume of coke and refined petroleum products, though experiencing a slight decline. Spain showed a significant upward trend, while Poland demonstrated robust annual growth. France and Italy faced declines, with Italy having a noticeable drop. Notably, Belgium and the Czech Republic saw significant increases, unlike the United Kingdom, which continued to drop. Small economies like Cyprus and Montenegro exhibited contrasting trends, with Montenegro growing sharply. Over the past five years, some Eastern European countries like Slovakia and Lithuania experienced healthy growth, whereas older economies showed mixed patterns.
Looking forward, key trends to monitor include Eastern European countries' continued growth and potential recovery in larger economies like the UK and Italy. Additionally, the impact of alternative energy adoption and sustainability policies could reshape the landscape of coke and refined petroleum products' transportation volumes across Europe, driving potential shifts in freight volumes among these countries.
