Power Generation Through Waste Management Triggers the Use of Compact Construction Equipment
With the rise in environmental safety concerns, the North American government focuses on electricity generation through waste. At the beginning of 2022, 60 Waste to Electricity plants were operating in the United States, with a total generating capacity of 2,051 megawatts (MW). Further, in 2023, the British Columbia Institute of Technology opened a new USD 1.5 million waste-to-electricity project center on the Burnaby campus. Compact equipment such as excavators & loaders are used for waste management and support the growth of the North America compact construction equipment market.INDUSTRY RESTRAINTS
High Mortgage Rates Can Restrict Residential Construction Demand
The rise in mortgage rates is impacting residential construction projects in the North American region. The residential construction activities declined in the U.S. & Canada in Q1 2023. According to Canadian Statistics data, residential construction declined by 0.9% in Q1 2023. The U.S. residential building permits declined by 3.7% in June 2023 compared to May 2023. Furthermore, the decline in housing permits is due to rising mortgage rates in the North American market. The Federal Reserve System (Central Bank of U.S.) further predicted the mortgage rates to be at 4.6% in 2023, which is comparatively higher than the pre-pandemic levels.Labor Shortage Expected to Restrict Demand for Compact Equipment
- According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, the U.S. construction industry had approximately 440,000 job openings in April 2022. The investment of nearly USD 1.2 trillion was announced through the Infrastructure Bill in 2021 and requires over 300,000 laborers each year to meet the goal of rebuilding infrastructure projects.
