The "Japan 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 Japanese construction industry is expected to grow by 1.7% in real terms in 2024, supported by an increase in the total value of private investment on buildings and government investment in developing infrastructure for the 2025 World Exposition in Osaka.

According to the Statistics Bureau of Japan, the total value of private investment on buildings grew by 2.1% year-on-year (YoY) in the first quarter of 2024. By segment, it grew by 3% in non-residential buildings and fell by 2.6% in residential buildings during the same period. Also, an increase of 3% YoY in the value of contracts received for construction during the first five months of 2024, supports the industry's output in the short term. Despite increased investment, the industry's challenges remain heavy, owing to the shortage of skilled labour, which caused construction starts to fall by 8.1% YoY in the first five months of 2024, preceding an annual decline of 6.9% in 2023.

Over the remainder of the forecast period, the construction industry's output is expected to record an annual average growth of 1.1% between 2025 and 2028, supported by investments in the renewable energy, manufacturing, and commercial sectors. The government aims to generate 36-38% of the power mix from renewable energy sources and to increase offshore wind capacity by 2030.

Additionally, it aims to increase nuclear energy's share in the energy mix from 7% in 2022 to 20-22% by 2030 and become carbon neutral by 2050. These goals will help support investments in the energy sector. Forecast period growth will also be supported by cross border infrastructure projects, involving the development of 500km fully automated underground transportation system from Tokyo to Osaka and improvement of digital connectivity between the US and Japan, through the development of two new subsea cables - Proa and Taihei.
