Portugal Construction Market Size, Trends, and Forecasts by Sector – Commercial, Industrial, Infrastructure, Energy and Utilities, Institutional and Residential Market Analysis, 2024-2028


Summary

The construction industry in Portugal is expected to decline by 0.6% in real terms in 2024, owing to falling building permits, high construction costs, declining exports and high inflation. According to the INE, the total number of building permits issued in the country declined by 8.5% in the first eleven months of 2023, compared to an annual decline of 4.4% in 2022. Moreover, construction activities in 2024 will also be hampered by the ongoing political crisis, with the country's prime minister Antonio Costa forced to resign in November 2023 owing to corruption charges over investigation into several projects approval process, resulting in stalling or scrapping of projects worth billions including several lithium mining projects, a green hydrogen mega-project, and a data centre in Sines.

The construction industry’s output is expected to rebound and register an annual average growth rate of 1.9% from 2025 to 2028, supported by government investments in transport, energy, commercial and housing construction projects. In early January 2024, the government set aside EUR8 billion ($8.2 billion) for the construction of high-speed rail between Porto and Valença. Mercan Group, a Canadian company, announced in January 2024 that it would invest EUR450 million ($460.8 million) in the construction of eight hotels in Portugal, including the 452-key Hard Rock Hotel at Vau Beach, which is expected to open in 2026, as well as the Holiday Inn Express Porto-Boavista, Holiday Inn Express Evora, and Holiday Inn Beja, all of which are expected to open between June and September 2024.

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
