The forecast for brown coal briquettes final consumption in the non-ferrous metal sector in Germany shows stability from 2024 to 2026, with a predicted consumption level of 150 tonnes of oil equivalent annually. A decline is anticipated starting in 2027, with the figure dropping to 140 tonnes and continuing at this level in 2028. This represents a year-on-year decrease of approximately 6.67% in 2027. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the five years indicates a decrease due to the decline in the final two years.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Technological advancements that might increase energy efficiency, reducing reliance on brown coal.
- Potential regulatory changes incentivizing a shift towards more sustainable energy sources.
- Market conditions influencing non-ferrous metal production, impacting energy consumption needs.
