Research and Markets: Taiwan Infrastructure Report Q4 2011. Construction Sector Expected To Grow At A Faster Pace Over The Medium Term

DUBLIN--()--Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/2012a1/taiwan_infrastruct) has announced the addition of the "Taiwan Infrastructure Report Q4 2011" report to their offering.

Taiwan's construction sector continues to be animated by the strong number of projects in the pipeline. Although the industry's growth rate will ease to 3.1% in 2011, from a strong 10.9% in 2010, this is compared to a weak base contraction of 8.0% in 2009. Indeed, Taiwan continues to produce a large number of multibillion-dollar projects in both the transport and energy infrastructure subsectors. This is because the country remains committed to changing its electricity generation composition to boost energy security and improving transport links to support exports, the key sector driving economic growth.

Key Developments in Recent Months Include:

  • In August 2011, state-owned utility Taiwan Power Company was reported to have selected a Japanese-led consortium as the preferred bidder to develop a coal-based power facility worth more than JPY200bn (US$2.6bn) in Taiwan.
  • In July 2011, the Interior Ministry's Construction and Planning Agency (CPA) shortlisted four firms to bid for four plots of land on which they will construct 4,300 low-cost housing units, according to CPA director-general Yeh Shih-wen. The project is part of government efforts to ease soaring house prices in Taipei and New Taipei City.
  • In June 2011, Taiwan-based developer Farglory Group was granted a construction licence by Taipei's Urban Design Review Committee for the long-delayed Taipei Dome stadium project.
