In 2023, the share of solid fossil fuels in France's final energy consumption was recorded at 3.26%. Forecasts from 2024 to 2028 predict a slight decline in this share, dropping to 3.23% by 2028. This reflects a minor year-on-year decrease, indicative of France's gradual shift towards alternative energy sources. Over the five-year period, the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) suggests a minimal average annual decrease.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Implementation of new energy policies prioritizing renewable energy sources could further decrease fossil fuel dependency.
- Technological advancements in energy efficiency may reduce overall fossil fuel consumption.
- Potential economic or regulatory shifts affecting energy markets could impact future fossil fuel trends.
