Businesses will also see a smaller boost.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Just to recap. Until today the voucher scheme offered grants worth up to <strong>\u00a31,500 for homes<\/strong> or <strong>\u00a33,500 for businesses<\/strong> to help them get a gigabit-capable broadband (1Gbps) service installed, which is available to areas with broadband speeds of less than 100Mbps available &#8211; assuming there are also no near-term plans for a gigabit deployment in the same area (either via commercial or state aid supported builds).<\/p>\n<div class=\"bq2\"><strong>NOTE:<\/strong> The GBVS is currently being supported by an investment of \u00a3210m via the wider <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/2021\/03\/gov-starts-gbp5bn-uk-gigabit-broadband-and-voucher-schemes.html\"><strong>\u00a35bn Project Gigabit<\/strong><\/a> programme.<\/div>\n<p>Some local authorities have also provided top-up funding for this, which in many cases has effectively doubled or more the value of these vouchers. Naturally, vouchers with bigger values are handy because they enable operators to deploy into increasingly remote areas, where the build costs would previously have been too expensive for such projects to proceed.<\/p>\n<p>Back in October 2022 we reported (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/2022\/10\/government-set-to-raise-value-of-uk-gigabit-broadband-vouchers.html\">here<\/a>) that the BDUK team, which is the executive agency that oversees the Government&#8217;s various broadband and mobile programmes, were preparing to increase the value of their vouchers in order to help extend full fibre (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/fttp\">FTTP<\/a>) and other gigabit-capable networks deeper into the remotest rural communities. The details of this have now been confirmed.<\/p>\n<p>The government will now &#8220;<em>triple the value of vouchers<\/em>&#8221; available under the scheme. From &#8220;<em>early next year<\/em>&#8220;, eligible homes and businesses will be able to apply for <strong>up to \u00a34,500<\/strong> to cover the costs of a gigabit-capable connection, up from \u00a31,500 for homes and \u00a33,500 for businesses previously, which will enable broadband providers to reach further into rural areas where the build costs are higher.<\/p>\n<p>The move will no doubt be welcomed, although it&#8217;s worth remembering that the GBVS is somewhat of a limited scheme, which largely serves to nibble away at a much bigger problem. The voucher scheme has also had a rocky couple of years, not least due to the fact that it clashed with Project Gigabit\u2019s larger deployment contracts under the <strong>Gigabit Infrastructure Subsidy<\/strong> (GIS) programme. This caused some delays as the two sides of the project tend to target the same sort of rural areas and thus need to avoid duplicating their public investment.<\/p>\n<p>On top of that, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/openreach\" target=\"_blank\">Openreach<\/a>&#8217;s complementary <strong>Fibre Community Partnership<\/strong> (FCP) scheme is also still on hold (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/2022\/03\/openreach-puts-new-fibre-community-partnerships-on-hold.html\">here<\/a>) and that&#8217;s an issue because a lot of community groups have used them as part of their plans. But the operator did recently inform us that the current backlog is due to be resolved in early 2023 (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/2022\/11\/openreach-prep-return-of-uk-fibre-community-partnerships-in-early-2023.html\">here<\/a>)<\/p>\n<p>Overall, more than 111,000 vouchers have been issued through the government\u2019s vouchers schemes, and to date, more than 77,000 of these vouchers have been used to connect premises to gigabit-capable broadband.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Government&#8217;s Building Digital UK team has today confirmed that they&#8217;re tripling the value of the vouchers they issue to homes under their Gigabit Broadband Voucher Scheme (GBVS), which helps those in rural areas to get a gigabit-capable internet connection installed.
