The forecast for fresh groundwater abstraction in France's construction and other industrial activities shows stability from 2024 to 2028, with a per capita usage remaining constant at 0.01 cubic meters annually. This trend reflects a potential leveling off after past fluctuations. As of 2023, the level of abstraction also stood at 0.01 cubic meters per capita, indicating no year-on-year variations to signify shifts in reliance on fresh groundwater. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the next five years is anticipated to be 0%, illustrating steady conditions without growth or decline.

Future trends to watch for:

Sustainability measures that could either reduce or increase water abstraction.
Technological advancements in water recycling and desalination that may impact groundwater usage.
Regulatory changes focusing on environmental protections possibly affecting industrial water use policies.
Economic factors influencing construction and industrial activities that rely on groundwater abstraction.
