Utilities Infrastructure Capacity (UIC) Study

The study considers gas and electricity supply networks; telecommunications networks (including broadband); and waste management infrastructure.

The primary aim of the study was to establish the likely strategic utilities infrastructure requirements and investment necessary to support intermediate-term growth to 2031 and long-term growth to 2050.

The study used local economic and development growth forecasts to predict future utility demands. These utility demands were mapped across the study area and compared to the incumbent utility network provider’s growth plans.
