Is Britain getting a bad deal? @Ben_A_Hopkinson and I looked at 242 infrastructure projects across 14 different countries. Our conclusion? It costs more to build new tram systems, railways, and roads in Britain than almost anywhere else in the world. 🧵 samdumitriu.com/p/britains-inf…

Have a look at the right hand side of that chart, and consider that, per the @IEA, solar installations need to average only 630GW/yr between 2030 and 2050 for us to hit net zero. On these numbers, we hit that pace of buildout five years from now.
