Perception Towards Sustainable Infrastructure Financing Innovations: A Ppp Driven Approach

Abstract

With the rise in the global environmental issues, the demand for sustainable infrastructure is becoming the need of the hour. For accelerating it, financing for sustainable infrastructure is critical, keeping in view the issues of environmental degradation. This led to an increasing need of effective financial mechanisms which support these initiatives of sustainability. Therefore, it has prompted both public and private entities to explore innovative financing mechanisms. This study explores the funding options available for sustainable infrastructure financing and perception of people towards infrastructure financing. With the help of a structured questionnaire on Likert scale, data was collected from 300 respondents and analysed using SPSS software. The findings reveal that perceptions towards infrastructure financing innovations are not only influenced by demographic characteristics of individuals but also by level of awareness, perceived benefits and concerns related to such innovations. Additionally, it offers insights into the role of public and private sector entities (PPPs) in boosting sustainable infrastructure and industry.
