Pricing our network infrastructure
Manage episode 427299859 series 3475352
We use a number of funding mechanisms to raise most of the money we need to pay for our network infrastructure services. Good infrastructure pricing is needed for efficient and sustainable infrastructure investment.
Sometimes funding approaches are obvious and connected to how much we use, like monthly electricity bills and mobile phone bills. Other times they are far less visible, like fuel excise that’s included in retail petrol prices or rates and taxes, which pay for many of the infrastructure services that we depend on.
In this episode of Infrastructure for a better future, Te Waihanga Director of Economics Peter Nunns speaks to PwC Executive Director Lynne Taylor about our recent research that looks at how pricing works in New Zealand’s four main network infrastructure sectors: land transport, water, telecommunications, and energy.
