Russia Construction Market Size, Trend Analysis by Sector (Commercial, Industrial, Infrastructure, Energy and Utilities, Institutional and Residential) and Forecasts, 2022-2026
Summary
GlobalData has revised the growth forecast for Russia’s construction industry upwards in 2022, with the industry now expected to grow by 3.5% in real terms this year, from the earlier estimate of 0.6%. This upward revision is attributed to the progress in the public and private sector investments in construction works. According to Rosstat, the construction industry’s value-add grew by 6.6% YoY in the third quarter of 2022; this was preceded by a Y-o-Y increase of 3.4% in Q2 and 4.7% in Q1 2022. Moreover, the country’s total investment in fixed capital grew by 18.4% YoY in Q3 2022, preceded by Y-o-Y expansions of 21.2% in Q2 and 25.8% in Q1 2022.
Over the longer term, GlobalData expects the Russian construction industry to register an annual average growth of 3.8% from 2025 to 2026, supported by government investment in infrastructure, residential, and renewable energy projects. However, in the case of a protracted conflict, it is unlikely that residential and renewable energy projects will continue as private funding will dry up and public investment will be geared towards strategic industries and infrastructure. The government intends to invest heavily in improving and expanding road infrastructure, which is likely to go ahead under most war scenarios to help facilitate the movement of strategic resources. In June 2022, the government approved a road construction plan, which involves an investment of RUB13.2 trillion ($155.3 billion) in the construction, reconstruction, and repair of roads across the country, from 2023 to 2027.
