Summary
GlobalData's Construction Intelligence Center (CIC) is currently tracking water and sewage projects with a value of US$431.0 billion. In terms of the project pipeline value, Asia-Pacific accounts for the highest share with US$161.3 billion. The Middle East and Africa is in second place, with projects valuing US$133.2 billion. The America has projects valued at US$101.0 billion, while Europe has a project pipeline of US$35.0 billion, trailing the other regions. The report provides detailed metrics on global and the regions’ water and sewage construction projects (as tracked by CIC) split by country, stage and value. Detailed metrics are also provided for the top 10 countries by value and stage.
One of the major challenges facing policymakers focused on global development issues is water shortages and raising the investment required to overcome water scarcity. In a recent UN report, it was revealed that more than 5 billion people could suffer water shortages by 2050, due to climate change, increased demand and polluted supplies. 22 countries globally are above the 70% water stress level as set by the UN, and are therefore under serious water stress. Globally, water demand is predicted to increase significantly over the coming decades. According to the United Nations (UN) water use has been increasing worldwide by about 1% per year since the 1980s, and is expected to continue increasing at a similar rate until 2050, accounting for an increase of 20-30% above the current level of water use. On average, high-income countries treat about 70% of the wastewater they generate, however this drops to 38% in upper middle-income countries and 28% in lower middle-income countries. In low-income countries, only 8% of industrial and municipal wastewater undergoes treatment of any kind.
Key Highlights
- The highest value of projects are at the execution stage, with US$249.5 billion, followed by projects at the pre-execution stage with US$71.7 billion.
- China leads the global project pipeline, with projects valued at US$73.7 billion, followed by the US with US$72.9 billion.
- Public investment is responsible for the funding of the highest proportion of projects, with 54%, with joint public/private funding at 32% and the remaining 14% of projects financed by private funding.
- Assuming all projects tracked go ahead as planned, the highest value of projected contract value is in 2020, with US$69.6 billion, falling to US$21.3 billion in 2023.
- Collection and transmission projects account for the highest value with US$197.9 billion followed by treatment plants with US$69.5 billion.
Scope
