DUBLIN — (BUSINESS WIRE) — September 13, 2021 — The "Construction in Sweden - Key Trends and Opportunities to 2025 (H1 2021)" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The Swedish construction industry fared better than its Nordic neighbours in 2020, due to the moderate Coronavirus (COVID- 19) containment measures, which ensured construction was not greatly disrupted last year, and grew by 1% in real terms in 2020. Growth was supported by public and private sector investments in both building and civil engineering works, with positive developments in the residential and infrastructure sectors. Moreover, this compares favorably with the industry's performance in 2019, when it contracted by 0.9%.

Owing to the uncertain situation, however, the industry is expected to remain weak in 2021, registering a marginal growth of 1%. Reflecting this fact, the industry has faced a difficult start to the year, with output contracting by 3.4% in Q1 2021 on a year-on-year (Y-o-Y) basis (the latest data available at the time of writing), compared to a Y-o-Y decline of 2% in Q4 2020. The industry was weakened by restrictions put in place by the government in the winter to combat the third wave of infections.

The industry to regain momentum and register an average annual growth of 2.1% is over the period of 2022-2025. This growth would be supported by public and private sector investment in the country's transport infrastructure, coupled with efforts to boost energy production.

In September 2020, the Swedish government presented the 2021 budget bill to the Riksdag, which plans to inject SEK105 billion (US$11 billion) into the economy in 2021. In addition, SEK9.7 billion (US$1 billion) is included in the bill, which is aimed at fighting climate change. Moreover, the government proposed SEK105 billion (US$12.5 billion) and SEK85 billion (US$10.1 billion) of a stimulus package for 2021 and 2022, respectively.
