Hungary Construction Market Size, Trends and Forecasts by Sector - Commercial, Industrial, Infrastructure, Energy and Utilities, Institutional and Residential Market Analysis, 2022-2026

Summary

GlobalData has marginally revised down the estimated growth for Hungary’s construction industry in 2022, with the industry now expected to grow by 2.3% in real terms this year, from the earlier estimate of 3.3%. This downward revision is primarily due to strengthening headwinds stemming from the rise in construction costs, high inflation, and rising interest rates. Following strong growth recorded in the first quarter of the year (20.4% YoY) on the back of a strong performance in 2021, growth in the industry has since begun to weaken; recording growth of just 3.3% YoY in Q2, reflecting the impact of the conflict in Ukraine on construction costs and investor confidence. According to the Hungarian Central Statistical Office (KSH), the overall construction price index rose by 3.5% year on year (YoY) in H1 2022. In response to rising inflation, the Central Bank of Hungary increased the interest rate by around 10 percentage points since the beginning of the year, taking the rate from historic lows to 13% as of September 2022—its highest rate since January 2000-with further monetary tightening measures expected in the coming quarters. These challenges are expected to weigh on the construction industry from the demand and supply side in the second half of this year and in 2023.

The industry is expected to return to growth in 2024 and register an annual average growth of 5.1% from 2024 to 2026, supported by the government’s focus on improving regional connectivity through the development of the country’s railway and road transport infrastructure, coupled with its efforts to boost renewable energy production. To reduce greenhouse gases, the government plans to shift its focus to renewable energy as the primary source of electricity production and set a target of achieving a 20% share of renewables in the total electricity generation mix by 2030 and 30% by 2040. This will be partially supported by investments totaling HUF5.3 trillion ($18.1 billion) over the next seven years, announced by the government in September 2022.
