What is Biodiversity Net Gain (BNG)?
Introduced through the 2021 Environment Act, Biodiversity Net Gain (BNG) requires that developments deliver a measurable increase in natural habitats and ecological features compared to their pre-development state. Compliance is assessed using the biodiversity metric published by Natural England, which assigns habitats a "biodiversity value" based on their size, distinctiveness, and condition. Developers must demonstrate that their projects achieve at least 10% net gain in biodiversity.
