Can anyone explain to me what this competition is supposed to be?

Are they suggesting that people will have a choice of at least two 
broadband suppliers?

If this is the case, then doesn't that mean that there will be at least 
two sets of broadband infrastructure? Isn't that rather a waste?

Or maybe the word competition has been included because it is a good 
word to have on your side?
