In 2021, renewable energy and biofuels consumption reached 5.1 million metric tons of oil equivalent in Belgium. This was an increase of over four- percent from the previous year, and 4.5 million metric tons of oil equivalent more than in 2000. Even though figures have been continuously rising, it is still far lower than oil consumption, the main primary fuel consumed in Belgium. In 2020, gross inland consumption of oil and petroleum products amounted to nearly 20 million metric tons of oil equivalent.
