By Shubhendra Anand , 04 October, 2024

The construction sector significantly contributes to climate change. In 2024, specific changes in the market scenario will lead to a bounce back in the construction sector. The economic year 2024 will lead to easing inflation rates. It is the main cause of the construction sector in several countries. Developed nations like the United Kingdom will see positive construction domain recovery in 2024. Clean energy transition induces specific sustainable measures in construction technologies. It will enhance the structure to follow the clean energy trends in 2024. Experts suggest that clean energy initiatives in the construction domain will shape its future.

Recovery in the construction sector began from the onset of May 2024 as the inflation dries up gradually. According to surveys of 2024, commercial properties led the way for the upturn of events in construction that boosted its comeback. Data from the survey shows that commercial property sector growth is one of the significant factors behind the revival of the construction sector. Clean energy transition drives sustainability approaches in the buildings, too. Recently, research has shown that high-rise buildings storing energy is the new trend in the clean energy transition phenomenon. Renewables are an essential sector in the changing dynamics of the energy market. Hence, the construction sector boosts the inclusion of new trends in the energy market to attain sustainability.

In the United Kingdom, multiple incentives and investments are being made for the clean energy transition in the construction sector. The nation is adopting a clean growth strategy to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by up to 80 percent by the end of 2050. However, achieving this milestone may take many efforts, although the final result will be greener and more sustainable. The construction of green buildings is a significant effort for sustainability. It includes the usage of eco-friendly materials and sustainable designs supporting energy efficiency. Hence, its success will be louder in net zero emissions. By incorporating renewable energy sources like wind and solar power, the housing properties' infrastructure. This can be very effective in increasing sustainability. However, it may be costly. Therefore, allocating funds from the netizens will be effective. Using recycled materials, being environmentally friendly, and properly disposing of construction materials will enhance the chances of sustainability. Therefore, sustainable measures in the construction sector have several benefits
