Italy Construction Market Trends & Drivers:

A major factor in the growth of the Italy construction market has been the National Recovery and Resilience Plan (PNRR), a European Union-funded program of projects and investments to ease post-COVID-19 economic recovery, which foresees investments in railways, bridges, ports and civil engineering works. The public works sector continues to perform well despite the construction sector weakening. Investing in transport and energy corridors increases activity until 2026. Residential permits decrease. Public debt increases. Forecasts for civil engineering show strong growth in 2025.

Another trend involves constructing sustainably and greenly in accordance with national climate targets and EU carbon neutrality obligations. Energy rehabilitation, renewable energy systems, and use of sustainable materials are either required or encouraged under law. Besides large renewable energy plants like solar parks and wind farms, and grid upgrades, operators like Terna will invest multibillion-euros in the transmission network. Investments are expected to offset structural weaknesses in the residential building segment and support a renewables capacity rebound. Sustainability will also drive the sector's search for a longer-term recovery.

Transport and energy utilities also constitute a large share of infrastructure investment and have long been the focus of government and public-private partnership (PPP) activity. Examples include rail or port capacity and upgrades and the expansion of renewable energy interconnections. Building permits and housing starts, for example, have decreased, in a macroeconomic environment with tariffs. But this segment is seen as a bright spot in the overall construction industry, a modernizer and an offset for declines in residential construction and some industrial construction in the United States.
