GlobalData expects the construction industry in Sweden to fall by 6.1% in real terms in 2024, owing to head winds caused by high inflation, interest rates, and falling building permits. According to the Statistiska Central Byrån (SCB), the total number of building permits issued in the country fell by 41.9% year on year (YoY) in 2023, owing to 50.9% YoY fall in residential building permits issued and 12.1% YoY fall in non-residential building permits issued. Moreover, the country’s average construction production value index fell by 7.1% in the first three months of 2024, preceded by an annual decline of 6% in 2023. Major decline in the residential sector and weakness in commercial sector is likely to weigh on the construction industry's output in 2024.
Over the remainder of the forecast period, the construction industry is expected to recover and record an annual growth rate of 2.2% between 2025 and 2028, supported by investments in infrastructure and housing projects. According to a report commissioned by the city of Stockholm, the greater Stockholm region in the country is expected to undergo major infrastructure construction works worth SEK1.3 trillion ($121.9 billion) scheduled between 2024 and 2040. Of the total, SEK667.7 million ($62.5 billion) will be allocated to housing projects like Stockholm Wood City and Stockholmshusen, and SEK362.1 million ($33.9 billion) for infrastructure projects like Stockholm subway and implementation of the Uppsala light rail. In March 2024, Vattenfall, Sweden state-owned energy company received final environmental permit for the development of Norrbäck and Pauträsk wind farm project in northern Sweden.
