In 2023, the gross inland consumption of kerosene-type jet fuel in France stood at 238.96 thousand terajoules. Based on forecasted data, consumption is predicted to reach 262.26 thousand terajoules in 2024, indicating a year-on-year increase of approximately 9.7%. This upward trend is expected to continue, with a projected 9.2% increase to 286.44 thousand terajoules in 2025, and a subsequent 8.4% rise to 310.38 thousand terajoules in 2026. The forecasts for 2027 and 2028 are 334.07 thousand terajoules and 357.53 thousand terajoules, corresponding to year-on-year growth rates of 7.6% and 7.0%, respectively. Over this period, the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) is 8.3%, indicating robust and sustained growth in the jet fuel market.
Looking ahead, future trends to watch for include potential shifts in regulatory policies aimed at reducing carbon emissions, the adoption of more efficient aircraft technologies, and the impact of fluctuating global oil prices. Advances in alternative jet fuels and biofuels, although excluded from this analysis, may also play a significant role in shaping the future landscape of jet fuel consumption in France.
