Its out 🎉 The Linear Infrastructure Planning Panel (LIPP)'s first ever white paper is published today. The new report highlights the critical urgency to update the UK's infrastructure planning and delivery processes if we are to deliver net zero, resilience and nature recovery in an orderly way. The white paper notes that we are at a pivotal moment for infrastructure planning and development and that there's a clear need to expedite the planning, scoping, consenting, and delivery phases of essential infrastructure projects. This week, the ESO's 'Beyond 2030' report underscored this urgency, calling for an additional £58 billion investment into electricity networks by 2035. There is vast potential for new planning technologies to revolutionise how infrastructure projects are delivered—faster, greener, with greater community acceptance, and at lower cost. However, a significant transformation in our approach to planning is imperative to unlock this potential. The white paper released today provides actionable steps towards realising this transformative change. Take a 👀 and tell us what you think.

Today, the LIPP Linear Infrastructure Planning Panel (LIPP) has unveiled its new report highlighting the critical urgency to update the UK's infrastructure planning and delivery processes. The white paper highlights a pivotal moment in the realm of infrastructure planning and development. Amidst the UK's ambitious targets for reaching net zero by 2050, there's a clear need to expedite the planning, scoping, consenting, and delivery phases of essential infrastructure projects. This week, the ESO's 'Beyond 2030' report underscored this urgency, calling for an additional £58 billion investment into electricity networks by 2035—a daunting task that includes the approval and construction of 1,000 miles of power cables and pylons. There is vast potential for new planning technologies to revolutionise how infrastructure projects are delivered—faster, greener, with greater community acceptance, and at lower cost. However, a significant transformation in our approach to planning is imperative to unlock this potential. The white paper released by the panel today provides actionable steps towards realising this transformative change.

Exciting news for Wisconsin! The state is set to receive a significant boost in broadband infrastructure, thanks to the Broadband Equity, Access, and Deployment (BEAD) program. This initiative will provide $42.5 billion nationwide, with a substantial portion allocated to Wisconsin, to support the deployment of high-speed fiber internet technology. It’s a major step towards ensuring that every household and business has access to reliable internet service at speeds of 100/20 Mbps, especially those currently lacking 25/3 Mbps service. This investment is not just about connectivity; it’s about empowering communities and driving economic growth. Let’s get ready to be more connected than ever! https://lnkd.in/geFECsbG #BroadbandForAll #infrastructure #growth
