During marginal growth period (2027-2037) the annual growth of NPEAJ is forecast to
be nine in 2027 down to two in 2036. During the near zero growth period (2038-2060) the annual
increase of NPEAJ is expected to be one or less. However, this should not be mistaken as 'no
activities'. This simply means the 'growth' is minimal while the level of NPEAJ remains at that of
the previous year.
