Dublin, Aug. 17, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "United States (US) Construction Market Size, Trend Analysis by Sector (Commercial, Industrial, Infrastructure, Energy and Utilities, Institutional and Residential) and Forecast, 2023-2027" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
US construction industry will contract by 2.5% this year in real terms, following a sharp decline of 8.2% last year.
Inflationary pressures and high interest rates, along with labour shortages have impacted construction activity, but it has mainly been the residential construction sector that has suffered a severe drop in work in real terms.
The residential sector is expected to suffer a 12.6% decline this year, reflecting a marked decline in leading indicators; new privately-owned residential building permits authorized in the first four months of 2023 dropped by a 21% year on year (YoY), while new housing starts in the first five months of 2023 declined by 15.5%.
However, non-residential building sectors as well as the infrastructure sector and energy and utilities have been improving, following weakness in the past few years. Major fiscal stimulus packages such as the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA), the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), and the CHIPS and Science Act, will be a key driver of construction activity across these sector s.
As of May 2023, the Biden administration had announced over $220 billion in funding under the IIJA, including over 32,000 specific projects and awards.

The industry's output is expected to grow by 2.6% in 2024 and pick up to an annual average growth rate of 5.3% between 2025 and 2027, fuelled by investment in the energy, transportation, housing, and manufacturing sectors. As part of the (IRA, the government has allocated $369 billion to energy security and climate change mitigation programmes, with the goal of increasing the US's efforts to reduce emissions by 40% below 2005 levels by 2030.
In April 2023, the Energy Information Administration (EIA) projected that US natural gas production would increase 15% and LNG exports would increase 152% between 2022 and 2050, bringing total US natural gas production to 42.1 trillion cubic feet (Tcf) by 2050 from 35.81 Tcf in 2022 and LNG exports to 10 Tcf by 2050 from 3.88 Tcf in 2022.
