The InterAmerican Development Bank´s Sustainable Infrastructure Framework aims to help foster shared understanding of the key dimensions and attributes of sustainable infrastructure. The IDB Framework was adapted to Mexico after a thorough analysis of Mexico’s national development strategy and infrastructure investment priorities, in close collaboration with relevant stakeholders.

In Guanajuato, Mexico agriculture accounts for about 84% of water rights. Significant growth in agricultural production and use of groundwater wells have led to a 2 metre annual decrease in groundwater levels. Improving agricultural irrigation practices has the potential to address agricultural water inefficiencies for water-stressed regions like Guanajuato. MWS is a collaborative approach to improve economic outcomes for farmers, create resilient supply chains, and increase water efficiency by using ‘pay for performance’ to accelerate sustainable agriculture practices in water-stressed regions.
Due to decreasing aquifer water level (280 million m3 per year), Veolia Water Technologies (Veolia) partnered with The Nature Conservancy (TNC) and local municipality to propose the establishment of a water fund to finance changes to local water-catchment and uses. As a result, Livelihoods Funds created a project to support vulnerable farmers in Aguascalientes to invest in drip irrigation equipment to enhance farm resilience. Changing to a drip irrigation system showed a 50% - 70% decrease in water consumption by farmers. If the 5,000 local family farmers in the water catchment area adopted this system through the new fund, this results in approximately 65% reduction of the annual aquifer deficit.

The project represents the most important tourism and transportation infrastructure proposal for the south-southeast region of the country.
Converting old unused mineshafts and canals into 'geothermal boilers' to produce electricity that can be transported to homes or public spaces.
Combination of sensors and AI to increase sewer capacity and reduce the frequency and magnitude of sewer overflows, especially during high rainfall events.
Building Information Modelling (BIM) and pre-fabrication technology being used in conjunction to enable the project to be built virtually before construction, reducing issues or inefficiencies that can arise during the construction stage.
The development of credit ratings for loans in emerging countries is critical for accessing capital markets
The African Development Bank (AfDB) is mandated to drive social and economic development in Africa through multiple project types including infrastructure
V2V technologies are Cooperative Intelligent Transport Systems (C-ITS) that enable communication between vehicles to avoid accidents and and enable the optimisation of traffic flow.
A dynamic tolling algorithm recalibrates toll rates based on traffic congestion and local conditions every few minutes and is a tool to manage traffic demand through pricing.
Decentralised microgrids enable 'prosumers' to trade their surplus energy, resulting in reduced cost, increased use of renewables, and reduced demand on the energy grid.
Digital technology integrated into smart containers enable accurate near real-time monitoring and control of the condition, location and the environment of shipping containers.
Mobility as a Service (MaaS) uses a digital platform to integrates end-to-end trip planning, booking, ticketing, and payment across all modes of transportation.
Digital technology to enable regulators to measure water abstracted and use data for compliance and enforcement purposes.
Pedestrian and weather sensors installed at road intersections to adapt traffic light operation to match real time demand and safety requirements.
Advanced traffic management systems improve the performance of road services through the use of sensors, GPS, smart cameras, and weather information systems.
Remote sensors, UAVs and satellite technologies to monitor water bodies for algal blooms and provide early warnings of potential health risks to the general public.
Smart meters collect and transmit real time water usage data from users, which can be used for billing, improve water efficiency and enhance customer experience.
Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) are drone-like aircrafts without an onboard pilot which can provide last mile transport similar to car-based ride hailing services.
