City & Financial Global is pleased to announce the latest edition of its annual UK Sustainable Infrastructure Policy & Investment Summit, which will be held virtually on 14th September, 2021.
Book your place today to hear key insights from government ministers, infrastructure industry leaders and investors about the latest policy developments, including the role of the industry in achieving net zero, how the UK Infrastructure Bank will 'crowd' in private sector investment and the focus on investment in economic infrastructure aligned to the 'levelling up' agenda.

Among the leading policy issues to be discussed are:


  • Update on the government's infrastructure policy and the proposed Green Bond

  • Attracting international investment into UK infrastructure projects

  • The UK Infrastructure Bank – moving to the operational phase

  • How will the Bank work in practice and 'crowd in' private sector investment?

  • Delivering the 'levelling up' agenda through targeted investment in economic infrastructure

  • Meeting the challenge of tripling offshore wind power and implications for the grid

  • Investing in CCUS – opportunities and challenges

  • Role of infrastructure in helping to achieve the 2050 net zero target

  • The future of nuclear energy – the need for innovation in financing and regulatory models

  • Making hydrogen projects investable

  • Approaches to managing climate risk in infrastructure investment
