The Alliance for Innovation and Infrastructure (Aii) is an independent, national research and educational organization dedicated to identifying our nation’s infrastructure needs, creating awareness of those needs, and finding solutions to critical public policy challenges. Our mission is to foster innovative solutions to current and future infrastructure challenges. Our purpose is to support infrastructure issues providing greater awareness, influence, analysis, and assistance in formulating solutions to achieve improvements, advancements, and opportunities across the entire range of systems that hold our country and world together. An independent think tank, Aii works to advance innovation across industry and public policy to improve the safety, efficiency, and resilience of our nation's infrastructure. Our work explores the intersection of economics, law, and public policy in the areas of climate, damage prevention, eminent domain, energy, infrastructure, innovation, technology, and transportation. Aii consists of two non-profits, the National Infrastructure Safety Foundation (NISF) 501(c)(4) and the Public Institute for Facility Safety (PIFS) 501(c)(3). Both non-profits consist of volunteer boards of directors who legally govern the Alliance. These boards also work in conjunction with the Alliance’s own volunteer Advisory Council.

📖 If your holiday reading list includes Disaffected! you'll be in store for a number of insights from Aii's Executive Director, Benjamin Dierker. Extensively quoted, Benjamin brings the chapter on transportation to life by shedding light on unseen and underappreciated challenges and solutions across the infrastructure landscape.
Aii is featured in the DC Journal, highlighting how bureaucracy stalls proven rail safety innovations from reaching the tracks. What are the #safety risks of these delays? Read more: https://lnkd.in/gPCrBUre #RailSafety #Innovation #Infrastructure
🏆 Congratulations to our Student OpEd Scholarship Contest winner Meredith Perkins! 🏆 Meredith impressed us with her thoughtful and innovative approach to reimagining Appalachia's role in the clean #energy expansion. Her OpEd sheds light on the unique challenges and opportunities facing her home state of Kentucky, offering a compelling vision for an equitable and sustainable future. Reflecting on her experience, Meredith shared: "Participating in the Aii contest encouraged me to think outside-of-the-box about green energy solutions for my home state of Kentucky. As a descendant of coal miners, I am especially passionate about bringing underrepresented Appalachian perspectives into the conversation and exploring equitable and environmentally-friendly ways to bring new economic activity to rural spaces. In my OpEd, I hoped to encourage readers to reimagine Appalachia's abandoned mines not as landmarks of #coal's past, but as the heart of green energy's future." We’re proud to celebrate Meredith’s passion, creativity, and dedication to making a difference. Congratulations, Meredith, on this well-deserved recognition! ✨ 🎉 #Innovation #Sustainability #ThinkTank
Every project underground carries the potential to uncover more than just infrastructure. Modern utilities and ancient history often share the same space, reminding us that damage prevention protects both our future and our past. #DamagePrevention #Infrastructure Watch now: https://lnkd.in/g9AQd7iJ

#Hydrogen has garnered significant interest as a key element of the future energy landscape. However, significant obstacles lie ahead. Infrastructure needs for centralized hydrogen production will require years, tens of billions of dollars, and major regulatory shifts to adapt existing frameworks. Current pipeline regulations, which restrict retrofitting natural gas pipelines for hydrogen, make centralized hydrogen hubs complex and costly – for the short term.
