3 ways to Buy BNG units
BNG is mandatory for most new developments. If you aren't compliant, your project will be refused by local planning authorities. This leads to major delays, questioning investors, and a bottleneck in your development pipeline.
There are 3 ways to become compliant.
On-Site
You must attempt to achieve a minimum of 10% biodiversity net gain on your current site first. If it's not possible - consider the other two options.
Off-Site
You purchase BNGs directly from the landowners who manage these units on your behalf. Often, they are farmers who want to create a better impact for their local environment.
Statutory Credits
You are forced to pay these statutory credits to the government if you cannot achieve on-site or off-site BNG. They are more expensive and will damage your net profit.
How to secure your off-site BNG units
Step 1: Conduct necessary ecology studies
Step 2: Secure a s106 or covenant
Step 3: Agree sale of BNG unit
Step 4: Register Land & Allocation
Step 5: Manage, Monitor, & Report
You could pass this workload to an internal staff member.
Or you can save the headache and work with a BNG partner who's done this time and time again.
