The analysis of the European non-renewable waste final consumption in the non-metallic minerals sector shows that, as of 2023, Germany leads in consumption with 21.77 thousand tonnes of oil equivalent. Significant growth was observed in Romania, Bulgaria, and Lithuania, with Romania having the highest year-on-year increase at 25.85%. Conversely, Poland experienced a decline of 2.7%. While some countries, such as Hungary and Cyprus, exhibit robust growth, other regions remain stable or show minimal growth.
For future trends, watch for continued growth in Eastern European countries, potentially driven by industrial expansion. Meanwhile, policy shifts towards sustainable practices may influence consumption patterns, promoting efficiency and innovation across the sector, particularly in Western Europe.
