The Construction in China - Key Trends and Opportunities to 2028 (Q3 2024) report provides detailed market analysis, information, and insights into the Chinese construction industry, including:

  • The Chinese construction industry's growth prospects by market, project type and construction activity
  • Critical insight into the impact of industry trends and issues, as well as an analysis of key risks and opportunities in the Chinese construction industry
  • Analysis of the mega-project pipeline, focusing on development stages and participants, in addition to listings of major projects in the pipeline.
The Chinese construction industry is expected to grow by 4% in real terms in 2024, owing to robust public investment and an acceleration of progress on projects in the infrastructure, and energy and utilities sectors. In the first half of 2024, the government invested over CNY1.2 trillion ($167.5 billion) in renewable energy projects, CNY569 billion ($79.4 billion) in water conservation projects, and CNY337.3 billion ($47.1 billion) in China Railway projects. In addition, the Ministry of Commerce reported that the country received nearly CNY142 billion ($19.8 billion) in foreign investment in the manufacturing sector during the first half of 2024. However, the industry's output will be limited in the short to medium term owing to the decline in residential activity, with investment in the sector falling by 10.3% year on year (YoY) in the first half of the year. To support the sector, the government announced that it will introduce a CNY300 billion ($41.9 billion) affordable housing loan in March 2024, which will assist state-owned companies to purchase homes at reasonable prices.

The construction industry is expected to record an average annual growth rate of 3.9% between 2025 and 2028, supported by investment in infrastructure projects as part of the 14th Five-Year Plan (2021-2025), as well as the government’s plan to achieve net zero emissions of greenhouse gases by 2060. Previously in 2023, the government announced it plans to develop 2,500km of high-speed railway lines and expand its total rail network by 50,000km by 2025.
