What is Biodiversity Net Gain?
Nature is infrastructure. When development leaves habitats richer than it found them, communities stay resilient, planning consents run smoother and assets hold long-term value. Biodiversity Net Gain is the policy mechanism that makes that measurable and mandatory.
​
Biodiversity net gain (BNG) became an applicable part of planning law in February 2024 and in principle mandates that most planning applications in England must now demonstrate at least a 10% uplift in biodiversity value compared with the pre-development baseline.
That uplift (net gain) must be secured for a minimum of 30 years through retaining, where possible, existing ecological value and improving upon it through on-site design, off-site habitat creation or the purchase of statutory biodiversity credits.
