It leverages on key assets and initiatives already underway within the area such as the existing green and blue infrastructure, long-established transport routes, 230 local businesses, and the low and zero carbon businesses and energy systems driven by Tyseley Energy Park and the University of Birmingham’s Energy Institute.
