As of 2023, France's petroleum coke energy supply stood at 8,000 Gigawatthours. The forecast from 2024 to 2028 indicates a gradual decline in supply, starting from 7.95 thousand Gigawatthours in 2024 to 7.65 thousand Gigawatthours in 2028. This trend reflects a slight, steady decrease over the years.
The year-on-year variations highlight small declines, with a drop of less than 1% each year. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the upcoming five-year period (2024-2028) suggests a moderate average annual decrease, emphasizing a gentle reduction in reliance on petroleum coke energy.
Future trends to watch for:
- France's energy transition efforts could further accelerate the decline in petroleum coke usage.
- The development of alternative energy sources such as solar and wind may increasingly replace petroleum coke.
- Regulatory policies aimed at reducing carbon emissions could impact petroleum coke supply and demand.
