In 2023, Germany led the European fossil energy final consumption in the non-metallic minerals sector, followed by Italy and Spain. The data shows that variations are diverse across countries with notable year-on-year declines in France and the United Kingdom, while countries like Ukraine, Romania, and Kosovo recorded significant increases. Over the past five years, some countries experienced marked contractions in average annual consumption, notably Sweden and Finland. Conversely, Iceland saw an astronomical surge, though starting from a very low base.
Future trends to watch include shifts towards renewable energy sources impacting consumption patterns, potential geopolitical developments affecting energy supply, and economic recovery influencing demand in the non-metallic minerals sector. Further, energy efficiency advancements and regulatory changes could reshape consumption landscapes across Europe.
