The European Commission<\/a> has published its annual report into the coverage of superfast broadband (Next Generation Access) services around the EU, which again shows that the United Kingdom is making good progress on 30Mbps+ capable Next Gen (NGA) service delivery but still lags miles behind most other EU28 countries in terms of pure fibre optic connectivity (FTTH<\/a>\/P\/B).<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The EU’s report, which appears to offer a wider perspective of the continent than last week\u2019s similar Ofcom<\/a> study (here<\/a>), is sadly also based on older data to the end of 2013 and so does not factor in all the progress that has been made throughout 2014. Similarly the service speed data is based on predictions of performance as a reflection of underlying availability, which usually tend to give a more optimistic result than real-world experiences.<\/p>\n

As a quick reminder, Europe’s Digital Agenda<\/strong> wants all member states to make speeds of 30Mbps+<\/strong> available to 100% of households by 2020 (with 50% subscribed to a 100Mbps+ capable service). By comparison the Broadband Delivery UK<\/a> scheme has yet to define its 100% goal, although they do aim to make fixed line superfast broadband available\u00a0to 95% by 2017 (99% by 2018 if you include mobile\/wireless solutions).<\/p>\n

Crucially the UK’s definition of “superfast<\/em>” is currently just 24Mbps+<\/strong>, although BDUK has previously told ISPreview.co.uk about how they expect that future NGA network enhancements (e.g. Vectoring on FTTC<\/a> lines) will help to make the 30Mbps+ EU target achievable by 2020.<\/p>\n

The UK also has a general commitment to make a minimum download speed of 2Mbps available to everybody<\/strong> by early 2016, although BDUK currently appears inclined to mirror\u00a0last years EU move\u00a0by plugging some of the holes via inferior Satellite<\/a> technology from BT<\/a>. However we haven’t seen an affordable Satellite<\/a> product from BT<\/a> in years and there are many other satellite ISPs in the UK<\/a> that might be a better fit, which should not be ignored (this is perhaps because BT has already secured the related USC\/2Mbps subsidy).<\/p>\n

The full report can be read here<\/a> and there’s also a separate study of retail broadband prices around the EU here<\/a>, but to save everybody some time we’ve linked a few of the more interesting data tables and comparisons below.<\/p>\n
