BT expects over £2bn from selling old copper cables
BT anticipates generating more than £2 billion over the coming ten years through the divestment of its existing copper wiring, coinciding with its transition of the UK to a nationwide fibre optic network. The telecommunications firm has already received £99 million for several thousand tonnes of excess copper, a sum that comes after a previous £105 million payment in 2024.
