In 2023, France's fossil energy gross heat production was 28.33 thousand gigawatthours. Forecast data for 2024 to 2028 shows a steady, albeit modest, annual growth. From 2024, the production is expected to increase incrementally from 28.37 to 28.51 thousand gigawatthours by 2028. The year-on-year growth is almost negligible, indicating a CAGR of approximately 0.12%. This trend reflects a stable but stagnant reliance on fossil energy without significant expansion.
Future trends to watch for include the impact of France's energy transition policies, shifts toward renewable resources, and any geopolitical events affecting the supply of fossil fuels. Monitoring technological advancements in energy efficiency and consumption reductions will also be key.
