The UK Government is accepting bids for ‘AI Growth Zones’
These will focus on local authorities with access to energy sources
Growth Zones are part of the government’s AI Action Plan
The UK Government is ramping up its “Plan for Change” with the launch of ‘AI Growth Zones’, designed to focus on deindustrialised areas of the UK ready for re-development.
The Government is encouraging local and regional authorities to submit their bids – especially those with ‘existing access to power or which would be suitable to establish major energy infrastructure’, such as those close to nuclear reactors, solar stations and wind farms, or battery storage.
