The final consumption of gas oil and diesel oil in Germany's mining and quarrying sector is projected to slightly decrease from 2024 to 2028. Starting at 679.06 Terajoules in 2024, the consumption decreases year-over-year by approximately 1.1% to reach 649.1 Terajoules by 2028. Questions of efficiency improvements, energy transitions, and potential economic fluctuations should be considered for 2024 onwards, particularly as the CAGR over the five-year forecast indicates a decline.
Future trends to monitor include technological advances in mining efficiency, policy shifts towards more sustainable energy sources, and changes in demand due to global economic factors. These elements will play a critical role in shaping this sector's energy consumption trajectory.
