Qatar Construction Industry Report 2024 Output Estimated to Decline by 1% in 2024 Due to High Interest Rates, Decline in Permits, Weak Industrial and Residential Markets - Forecast to 2028 - ResearchAndMarkets.com

DUBLIN, March 06, 2025 /BUSINESS WIRE/ --

The "Qatar Construction Market Size, Trends, and Forecasts by Sector - Commercial, Industrial, Infrastructure, Energy and Utilities, Institutional and Residential Market Analysis to 2028 (Q4 2024)" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

Qatar's construction industry was estimated to decline further by 1% real term in 2024, owing to high interest rates, a decline in building permits issued for non-residential buildings, weakness in the industrial market, coupled with increasing budget deficit, and a declining residential sector.

Moreover, the total number of permits issued for non-residential buildings declined by 3.6% YoY, while the permits for commercial buildings declined by 69.5% YoY in the first eight months of 2024. Moreover, the average industrial production index fell by 3.1% YoY in the first eight months of 2024, while the average manufacturing production index fell by 3.2% YoY, during the same period.

The government announced the 2025 Budget in December which included a budget deficit of QAR13.2 billion ($3.6 billion), up from QAR6.2 billion ($1.7 billion) budget deficit registered in the 2024 Budget. Also, the expected oil and gas revenue for 2025 is estimated at QAR154 billion ($42.3 billion), down by 3.1% compared to QAR159 billion ($43.7 billion) estimated in the 2024 Budget.

However, the construction industry is expected to rebound at an annual average growth rate of 4.5% from 2025 to 2028, supported by investments in renewable energy, industrial projects, and oil and gas initiatives, along with the National Renewable Energy Strategy implemented by the Qatar General Electricity & Water Corporation (Kahramaa). This strategy aims to increase the share of renewable power from 5% in 2024 to 18% by 2030.

Additionally, the government plans to invest in renewable energy projects to achieve a capacity of 4GW, which will include 200MW of distributed solar generation by 2030. In line with this, in November 2024, South Korean contractor Samsung revealed that it won a contract from the government for the construction of Qatar's fifth independent water and power project (IWPP).
