The final consumption of solid fossil fuels in Germany's paper, pulp, and printing sector shows a clear declining trend from 2024 to 2028. Starting at 271.16 thousand tonnes of oil equivalent in 2024, forecasts predict a decrease each year, reaching 253.14 thousand tonnes by 2028. This reflects a consistent year-on-year decline, averaging a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of approximately -1.7% over these five years.
Future trends indicate an ongoing shift towards sustainable energy sources and increased regulatory pressure to reduce fossil fuel usage. Observing the sector's transition to alternative energy solutions will be crucial in understanding its future energy landscape.
