Germany leads Europe in Direct Material Input of Fossil Fuel at 485.17 million metric tons, despite a slight decline of 1.15% in 2023. The Netherlands and Norway follow, with Norway showing a positive increase of 1.25%. Most countries, including the UK, France, and Italy, experienced slight to moderate declines. Notable increases were seen in Serbia and Slovenia.
