“Infra 3.0: Better Finance, Better Infrastructure” finds that $1 trillion a year could be saved by improving infrastructure productivity.
This Taskforce concept paper provides a framework to drive efficiencies, generate cost savings and create new ways of delivering traditional, sustainable and innovative models of infrastructure – ensuring we invest “smarter” and reduce the total SDG financing requirement.
This will be possible by scaling up what is referred to as “Infra 3.0” – an approach to infrastructure delivery which is highly distributed, digitised and “service” based, and which captures the benefits of new technologies, economic clusters and natural solutions to increase asset resilience and connectivity.
