Electrical & Mechanical Services Industry in the Post-Covid Era: Challenges and Opportunities
In the post-Covid-19 era, construction projects have hurried to make up for lost time during the pandemic, alongside government large-scale construction initiatives and the renovation of many old buildings, aiming to replace or modernize building facilities. This has led to increased demand for manpower in E&M engineering services. Hong Kong's railway has resumed normal schedules after the pandemic, resulting in greater wear and tear on its E&M components, thus sparking high demand for skilled maintenance workers. Despite the stable demand for electricity and natural gas before and after the pandemic, household consumption rose due to lifestyle changes, particularly in peak hours. Expectations of government initiatives for housing and infrastructure suggest continued sector growth. The aviation industry has gradually resumed after the pandemic, with airport traffic reaching 80% of pre-pandemic levels. As a result, there is an increased demand for aircraft maintenance services, especially with the opening of the third runway at the Hong Kong Airport by the end of 2024. Employers emphasise the importance of mastering BIM drawing for students in E&M engineering programs. Technologies like Modular Integrated Construction (MiC), Design for Manufacture and Assembly (DfMA), and Multi-trade Integrated Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing (MiMEP) have gained popularity in recent years. These technologies, which involve factory assembly and on-site installation, shorten construction timelines. These require E&M professionals to adapt to and continuously learn relevant skills. As climate change drives the transition towards renewable energy, mechanical and electrical engineers must possess relevant skills. Adaptability to evolving technologies and environmental standards is crucial for professionals in the E&M Services industry.
