Recently, the government of India has launched the National Monetisation Pipeline (NMP). The NMP estimates aggregate monetisation potential of Rs 6 lakh crores through core assets of the Central Government, over a four-year period, from FY 2022 to FY 2025.  The plan is in line with Prime Minister's strategic divestment policy, under which the government will retain presence in only a few identified areas with the rest tapping the private sector.

The document discusses how infrastructure investment and regeneration projects are managed in the UK. It provides details on two major infrastructure projects: 1. The establishment of the Infrastructure and Projects Authority in 2016 to oversee long-term infrastructure priorities and funding for projects like Crossrail and broadband expansion. 2. High Speed 2, the second high-speed rail project in the UK after the Channel Tunnel rail link. It will connect London to Birmingham in the first stage and then extend to Leeds and Manchester. There is an estimated cost of £50 billion and debate around the route. 3. Infrastructure investment is seen as important for economic growth but requires large funding due to high costs and long timelines of projects. Public-private

Target audience

BossGee

Investment in infrastructure has become a central source of worry in Nigeria. The new government envisage that about $25b will be needed annually to finance critical infrastructure like Railways of the railways project envisage. One critical corridor is the one that links the sea ports to the hinterland. Portharcourt- Calabar- Warri Lagos axis. How can it be funded in the face of dwindling public revenue? An attempt is hereby printed for further inputs/refinements by colleagues.

Energy Infrastructure Package: What is in it for HVDC Grids?

The HVDC grid projects seem to have what it takes to become a so-called ‘Project of Common Interest’. This implies that they can get a preferential regulatory treatment thanks to the brand new EU Regulation for Energy Infrastructure that has been adopted last year to speed up projects that are of strategic importance for Europe. In this presentation I give an overview of the new set of regulatory tools that the Energy Infrastructure Package provides, their status of implementation, and what is next.

The document introduces a competitive supplier development programme to support large infrastructure investment programmes by state-owned enterprises (SOE) in South Africa. It notes that SOEs deliver infrastructure projects through procuring goods and services from local and global suppliers, but often use global suppliers due to limitations in local supply capacity and competitiveness. The programme aims to address these issues by developing local suppliers through training, financing, and matching them with opportunities in SOE investment programmes.

North American consultancy reported financial results for the first half of 2015, with plans to grow revenue and improve operating margin to 8%. The company operates across various infrastructure sectors in North America, with the largest being transportation which makes up 46% of revenue. Over the next few years, infrastructure spending in areas like transportation, water, and aviation is expected to increase significantly. The company aims to capitalize on these opportunities through expanding its business units and improving productivity.

Horizon Nuclear Power was established to help meet the UK's need for new, secure low carbon power. It is developing two new nuclear power stations, Wylfa Newydd on Anglesey and Oldbury in South Gloucestershire. Wylfa Newydd will employ up to 5,400 people during construction and 850 long-term operating jobs, bringing substantial economic benefits. Horizon has made progress through the Generic Design Assessment process and is working towards gaining consents and permits to enable a final investment decision in early 2019 and start of generation in the late 2020s.

Construction Contracts – Hybrid Annuity Model

SSudhaVelan

The document discusses the hybrid annuity model (HAM) for building national highways in India. Under HAM, the government provides 40% of the project cost to private developers as construction support, and pays the remaining 60% as annuity payments plus interest over the operations period. HAM has helped speed up highway construction in India by renewing private sector interest in projects, with substantial progress made under the model in the past three and a half years.

Public private partnerships - the case of lebanon first ppp - pierre el-hnoud

Pierre Hnoud

This document discusses Lebanon's need for public-private partnerships (PPPs) to address major infrastructure gaps, particularly in the power sector. It notes that power demand exceeds supply by 23% and costs the government $1.5 billion annually in subsidies. A proposed solution is a 1500-2500 MW independent power plant (IPP) under a PPP scheme. Key risks like political and economic instability would be borne by the government, while private partners would take on execution risks in constructing and operating the plant. The next steps proposed are hiring an advisor, finalizing PPP laws, establishing a PPP unit, continuing awareness efforts, and gaining private sector investment interest.

Deliver CCS demonstration - ZEP

International Hydropower Association

This document discusses carbon capture and storage (CCS) and the role of the Zero Emission Platform (ZEP) coalition in enabling widespread CCS deployment. ZEP aims to make CCS commercially available by 2020 by supporting the EU CCS demonstration program, developing CO2 storage and transport infrastructure, and conducting research. However, CCS deployment is threatened by a weak carbon price in the EU emissions trading system. ZEP is working to strengthen the business case for CCS and ensure successful demonstration projects and long-term deployment through knowledge sharing and recommendations to policymakers.

This document summarizes the findings of a study on developing innovative financing solutions for the deployment of ERTMS in Europe. Key points: 1) There is a large funding gap (€430 billion) for rail projects in Europe through 2030, far exceeding available funds (€24 billion) from the Connecting Europe Facility. 2) Grants from the CEF are insufficient to fully deploy ERTMS by 2030 as required. Innovative financing is needed to complement grants. 3) The study examined potential business models and financing schemes, including public-private partnerships, to attract private investment in ERTMS deployment across infrastructure and rolling stock. 4) Corridor-level analysis

The PPP Book aims to provide reliable information to prospective investors on projects in the PPP pipeline. Its true value lies in the accuracy of the information. Projects are categorized according to the stage of development they have reached. A PPP project must be market ready in the true sense of the word when it is categorized as “ready for offer”. What this implies is that the basic conditions underlying its business case, such as land availability and government support (if applicable) are largely met or soon to be met. The current PPP Book is an update of the 2011 version, incorporating recent developments. To date, 12 projects have been tendered out. In this 2012 version, there are 3 projects ready for offer, 26 projects under the category “priority” and 29 projects under “potential”. There are 9 new projects that are not in the 2011 PPP Book, of which 1 is classified as “priority” and 8 as “potential”. A significant difference from the 2011 version is that the number of “potential” projects is reduced from 45 to 29 as a result of more rigorous screening.

The document summarizes the preliminary results of an OECD review of the UK's PPP governance framework. It finds that the UK has a comprehensive institutional framework for PPPs that aligns with OECD principles on transparency, value for money, and budgeting. Key aspects include the National Infrastructure Plan for prioritizing projects, guidance in the Green Book for evaluating delivery options, and transparency tools like the Whole of Government Accounts. The framework has evolved over time, with reforms through the PF2 model, but continues to provide integrity in the procurement process.

If AI changes everything – do feelings still matter?

APM event hosted by the Midlands Network on 11 April 2024. Speaker: Carole Osterweil Data is power. AI changes everything. If the claims about both are true, how can we ensure we use data and AI well? And what does it mean for the very things which make us human - our feelings? In this workshop Carole will draw on material from her ground-breaking book, Neuroscience for Project Success: why people behave as they do to answer both questions. “We like to think our decision making is completely rational. However, once there's an element of uncertainty, conscious assessments are only part of the story. Two other inputs, both subconscious and driven by our innate need to survive, have a big impact. One, automatic reactions driven by cognitive biases, gets plenty of airtime. The other input, our raw visceral emotions might be scary to talk about and less understood - but that’s not a reason to pretend they don’t exist!” This interactive workshop will draw on material from Carole’s book, Neuroscience for Project Success: why people behave as they do, published by APM in 2022. You’ll come away with: a clear understanding of how the human brain works. a framework that: explains ‘why people behave as they do’. makes it easier to talk about feelings in a matter-of-fact way (so that they become part of your conscious data set) new insights into yourself and your projects in a world that’s often characterised by stress and disorder. Act on these insights and you’ll see the impact - on your teams and stakeholders, your decisions about how to use data and AI, and ultimately your project outcomes.
