The European textile and leather sector's heat consumption in 2023 was dominated by Portugal, followed by Ukraine and Italy. Portugal, though slightly declining, remains the leader, while Bulgaria and Denmark exhibited strong growth. Lithuania also saw a significant increase, indicating potential shifts in energy use. Meanwhile, countries like France, Poland, and Estonia recorded substantial reductions, reflecting possible shifts towards more efficient practices or decreased industry activity.
Future trends to watch include the expansion of energy-efficient technologies and renewable energy sources, especially in countries with declining heat consumption. Also, monitoring the impact of economic and policy changes on national energy strategies will be crucial.
