Botswana will continue to post double digit construction industry value growth in 2013 and 2014, driven by investment into infrastructure. Whilst we do expect the industry growth rates to gradually slow over the forecast period, this is more due to base effects than any winding down of momentum. Demand from a booming mining sector, especially for expanded electricity capacity is driving new investment into the sector. We anticipate annual average growth of 10.7% between 2013 and 2017.

We have upgraded our 2012 forecast based on H1 real growth of 22%, and are now anticipating 21.9% real growth for the year. Growth is expected to remain in the double digits in 2013 and 2014 at 15.9% and 10.5% y-o-y; however, we do anticipate real growth to slow to a more consistent but still strong rate over our forecast period.

The biggest source of value creation is likely to remain electricity investments. The country is working hard to reduce its reliance on South Africa, which has proven to be an unreliable source of electricity, and cater to growing demand domestically from its mining sector. There are a number of ongoing projects in the sector being developed by IPPs READ MORE >
