From 2013 to 2016, the volume of goods transported by railway in Denmark exhibited a robust upward trend, peaking at 325 million tonne kilometers. Between 2017 and 2020, the figures fluctuated but generally showed a decline, before rising again in 2022 to 316 million tonne kilometers. In 2023, the value stood at 305 million tonne kilometers, showing a slight decline from the previous year. The year-on-year variation in 2023 was -3.48%, and a CAGR over the past five years is 2.24%.
Looking ahead, the forecast from 2024 to 2028 indicates a gradual increase, with a predicted 5-year CAGR of 2.02%, leading to a total growth rate of 10.51%. This suggests moderate, steady growth in the volume of goods transported by rail internationally.
Future trends to watch for include potential increases in transportation efficiency, investments in railway infrastructure, and potential regulatory changes that could either boost or hinder international railway transport. Additionally, shifts in global trade patterns and economic conditions will play crucial roles in shaping these trends.
