Innovative Infrastructures in US Encourage a Sustainable Environment: Ken Research
The infrastructure sector in the United States of America includes the current infrastructure,
the regulatory and financing landscapes and the major projects in the construction pipeline.
These include all infrastructures such as roads, railways, electricity and power, water and
sewerage, communication, and airports and ports. The US budget blueprint released in March
2017 clearly demonstrates a new foundation for American Infrastructure Insights. The budget
includes a combination of new federal funding and incentivized non-federal funding. The public
funds will focus on incentivizing additional non-federal investments rather than offering direct
funds for infrastructure projects.
The focus is majorly on political and financial institutions involved in the infrastructure market,
along with the competitive and regulatory environment. The new investments and an analysis
of the project pipeline for each infrastructure sector explain the prospects for major projects
and the companies that have secured the contracts. In the year 2017, the US government has
released the list of projects to the National Governor's Association known as the Emergency
and National Security Projects. All the infrastructure projects under proposal were identified by
the government for further approvals. In the USA, IIC is currently monitoring 1,817 large-scale
infrastructure construction projects starting from all stages of development, announcement
and finally execution.
According to the research report “Infrastructure Insight: the US”, the analysis of the
infrastructure insight includes the regional trends, regulatory changes, projects and
investments along with competitive intelligence related to the growth strategies of leading
companies. The infrastructures are a built-to-last in reality; however the infrastructure insights
in US needs keep evolving as technology, demographics, and cultural values shift. Now-a-days
the constant changes were observed in the infrastructure expectations, infrastructure
investments in new projects or to retrofit old ones and also a driver of corporate relocations.
Technology tops the list in the infrastructure sector because broadband capacity and
performance is an important factor in influencing company relocations, the overall quality of
existing infrastructure, millennials’ preferences such as density, diversity, walk ability, and
transit accessibility as basic requirements at work place or residential.
The infrastructure sector demands for assets with the availability of capital. More than $100
billion revenue is available to target all classes of North American infrastructure assets. All the
infrastructure funds, pension plans, energy funds, insurance companies, construction
companies, and sovereign wealth funds are ready to invest in Greenfield and Brownfield assets
across capital intensive sectors. The majority of the infrastructure projects are related to energy
and power assets along with sub-sectors such as transport, social assets, environment, etc. The
sub-sectors experience a lower activity level as the assets are government-owned. It was
