The "Belgium Construction Market Size, Trends, and Forecasts by Sector - Commercial, Industrial, Infrastructure, Energy and Utilities, Institutional and Residential Market Analysis to 2028 (H2 2024)" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The construction industry in Belgium is expected to decline by 2% in real terms in 2024, following a marginal annual growth of 0.5% in 2023

The industry's output in 2024 will be affected by challenges stemming from high construction costs and high interest rates. According to the Belgian statistical office (STATBEL), the construction output price index rose by 2.4% year-on-year (YoY) in Q1 2024, following an overall annual growth of 6.5% in 2023.

The industry's output in 2024 will however be supported by an investment of EUR1.4 billion ($1.5 billion) by the Belgian electricity network provider Elia. This investment is a part of the company's broader capital expenditure plan of EUR30.1 billion ($31.9 billion) from 2024 to 2028; it is also in line with the company's broader strategy to decarbonise the energy system.

The analyst expects the Belgian construction industry to register an average growth rate of 3% from 2025 to 2028, supported by investments in the transport and renewable energy sectors. In April 2024, the French multinational utility company Engie announced that it plans to invest EUR4 billion ($4.2 billion) in Belgium by 2030, with primary focus on the renewable energy sector, particularly wind power generation.

By the end of this decade, the company plans to double its onshore wind energy capacity from 570MW currently to 1GW, increase its offshore wind capacity to 1GW, and triple its current solar capacity to 300MW by 2030. In another positive development, Belgium and Rwanda signed a new bilateral cooperation agreement 2024-2029, in January 2024. The EUR95 million ($100.7 million) cooperation agreement aims to allocate resources across key sectors such as agriculture, urbanisation and health, and public finance management.
