The result is that almost 95% of Scotland now has the ability to order a &#8220;<em>superfast broadband<\/em>&#8221; speed of <strong>24Mbps+<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>The contract also includes a <strong>clawback<\/strong> (gainshare) clause, which essentially means that any take-up by local premises above 20% in the intervention area (i.e. consumer orders of the new service) should result in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/britishtelecom\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">BT<\/a> returning some of the public investment (Scotland is now seeing well over 50%). The returned funding can then be reinvested into a further boost of network coverage and faster speeds.<\/p>\n<p>So far the programme for the Highlands and Islands region has produced a take-up of around 60% in the intervention area and as a result some \u00a33 million is being returned early by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/go\/britishtelecom\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">BT<\/a> (this can be done over the length of the 10 year contract). The funding is thus set to be reinvested in order to help <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/openreach\" target=\"_blank\">Openreach<\/a> extend their full fibre <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/fttp\">FTTP<\/a> network until 2020. This is on top of a similar return worth \u00a32.23m for the HIE region in 2015.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"bq1\"><p><strong>Paul Wheelhouse, Minister for Connectivity and the Islands, said:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;With our partners we have invested over \u00a3400 million in the Digital Scotland Superfast Broadband programme, taking fibre broadband to areas where the market would not otherwise go. Connectivity in the Highlands and Islands has been transformed by the Digital Scotland programme.<\/p>\n<p>The region as a whole has seen a huge increase in the availability of faster fibre-based services, with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/thinkbroadband\" target=\"_blank\">thinkbroadband<\/a> reporting an increase from 18.6% fibre broadband coverage in January 2014 to over 92% today. Access to fast and reliable broadband is also key in boosting our business and public sectors, helping to underpin economic growth and drive productivity.<\/p>\n<p>Grimsay and Great Bernera in the Outer Hebrides recently became our first fully ultrafast capable islands. We\u2019re now set to see similar coverage in other areas that have been challenging to reach, including Waternish and Glendale in Skye. I\u2019m delighted that as a result of great take-up of services in the region even more people across the area will benefit from the full fibre network.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Overall it&#8217;s stated that the DSSB project in HIE has helped to provide a new &#8220;<em>fibre<\/em>&#8221; network to cover more than <strong>180,000 premises<\/strong>. In all the project is expected to reach 30,000 more highlands premises than the initial contract target (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/fttc\">FTTC<\/a> and FTTP).<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"bq1\"><p><strong>Stuart Robertson, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/openreach\" target=\"_blank\">Openreach<\/a>&#8217;s HIE Director of Digital, said:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We\u2019re delighted to have more funds to reach that little bit further. We placed our final project cabinet in Wester Ross last week, it will mean more coverage for the Dornie community. All of our remaining coverage now will be FTTP. It allows us to bring high speed services direct to the people in more scattered homes and not spots, who may currently face the poorest broadband speeds.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The announcement doesn&#8217;t clarify, although we strongly suspect that this \u00a33m is part of the \u00a317.8m reinvestment that was confirmed by DSSB in August 2019 (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/2019\/08\/digital-scotland-to-cover-6000-more-premises-with-fttp-broadband.html\">here<\/a>), which promised to reach an additional 6,000 premises (about \u00a32.96K per premises &#8211; a huge level of subsidy). If that holds true then the \u00a33m should reach around 1,000 extra premises.<\/p>\n<p>Once the above programme completes then it will be followed by the new \u00a3600m <strong>R100<\/strong> (Reaching 100%) project, which has so far assigned two of its three LOTS to BT (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/2019\/10\/scotland-pick-bt-for-part-of-600m-superfast-broadband-rollout.html\">here<\/a>). However the final LOT 1 (North) covers the HIE region and has yet to be awarded. On top of that we don&#8217;t yet know how many premises or what technologies will be used, although the decision to go with BT for LOT 2 and 3 suggests that FTTP will be the focus.<\/p>\n<p><strong>UPDATE 1:51pm<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The HIE have informed us that their \u00a33m is separate from the \u00a317.8m mentioned a couple of months ago (i.e. the \u00a317.8m was only for the &#8216;Rest of Scotland&#8217; contract area).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Highlands and Islands Enterprise (HIE) has announced that a reinvestment of \u00a33m from BT will soon enable Openreach to build more &#8220;ultrafast broadband&#8221; capable Fibre-to-the-Premises (FTTP) ISP networks across the rural region of Scotland, although it&#8217;s unclear how many extra premises will benefit.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[474,471,56,69,38,89],"class_list":["post-19770","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uk_isp_news","tag-bt","tag-bduk","tag-fttp","tag-bt-openreach","tag-politics","tag-scotland"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"","error":""},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.9 -
