The regional annual average growth rate (AAGR) is predicted at over 3% from 2025 to 2028, aided by investments from the public and private sectors to build industrial and energy projects. Among these, energy construction projects are expected to pick up momentum owing to the intensive efforts by the regional governments to form clean energy projects. For example, the government of Turkey in January 2023 announced its hydrogen strategy which involves producing hydrogen at $2.40/kg by 2035 using solar energy. Thus, the domestic government is aggressively supporting solar PV energy through auctions and feed-in-tariffs.
Similarly, the regional development of the industrial construction sector is set to be aided by the establishment of new manufacturing plants over the forecast period. For instance, in February 2024, Lithuania-based technology company Teltonika announced its plans to develop a semiconductor manufacturing facility in Vilnius. The company has entered into a strategic partnership with Taiwan’s Industrial Technology Research Institute (ITRI) includes a license to manufacture ITRI’s semiconductor chips and devices.
Over the forecast period, further development in the regional construction sector is set to be aided by the extension of infrastructure projects including railways, highways, ports, and airports. For example, the development of an 870 km long high-speed rail project in the Baltic region is set to connect the capitals of Latvia, Lithuania, and Estonia, with Poland and the rest of the European region. The project is due to be completed in 2030 and has a total project cost of over $5.9 billion.

The energy and utilities construction category is set to register the fastest compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of above 3% over the forecast period. This growth is set to be aided by the regional government’s effort to diversify the energy mix by building new renewable energy projects. For example, the government of the Czech Republic revised its National Energy and Climate Plan (NCEP) in October 2023. The modified plan aims to build 6,000 MW of solar plants including construction work of a substation and installation of PV panels, turbines, generators, and transmission lines by 2030. Similarly, in March 2024, the European Investment Bank (EIB) approved the funding of over $111 million for the expansion work of the Kruonis Pumped Storage Hydroelectric Power Plant in Lithuania. The expansion work includes increasing plant capacity to 1 GW by 2026 from 900 MW in 2023.
The commercial construction segment is set to emerge as the fourth-largest sector in 2024. However, segmental dynamics are expected to record a negative trajectory in terms of output value (Real) during this current year. This decline in growth is partially driven by the high inflation and interest rates. However, the segmental output value (Real) is anticipated to rebound by 2025, supported by investments in the regional hospitality sector. For example, in Nigeria-based hotel group plans to invest $69 million to construct a five-star hotel with 237 room capacity in Turkey.
The industrial construction group is predicted to register a lucrative annual average growth rate (AAGR) of over 4.0% from 2025 to 2028. This growth over the forecast period is set to be driven by the rising foreign direct investments in the regional countries. For instance, as per the data released by the Investment and Development Agency of Latvia (LIAA), the foreign direct investment volume in the country rose by 30% in 2023 as compared to the previous year. The data further revealed that 46 projects were implemented in 2023 with more than half of the projects located in Riga and Pieriga.
The institutional construction category is expected to register the smallest share of nearly 4% in 2024. The segmental growth is primarily aided by investments in the healthcare and education industries. For example, the government of Russia is set to undertake construction work for the Sirius Science and Technology campus in Krasnodar with a total project cost of approximately $639 million. The construction work is predicted to commence by the end of 2024 and is set to be completed by 2030.
Eastern Europe Construction Market Analysis by Country
Russia is likely to continue its dominance over the forecast period. The growth is set to be driven by the investments from the government in heavy infrastructure. For example, the government aims to spend over $51 billion in improving the domestic public infrastructure and another $2.8 billion in strengthening the airport infrastructure in the country.
Poland is anticipated to emerge as the second-largest country in terms of construction output value (Real) in 2024. The domestic construction sector dynamics are likely to remain weak this year and are expected to continue till next year. The subdued consumer and investor confidence amid high construction costs and interest rates. However, this scenario is projected to change by 2026, supported by investments in transport, renewable energy, and industrial segments.
