BOLT01_HERO_300

Environment Bank is a trusted national brand with secure BNG solutions to offer developers a clean break from all liabilities. Delivering gains for nature across England, EB provide nationwide access to high-integrity off-site Biodiversity Units.

Since the Environment Act 2021 passed, EB has been hard at work creating a national network of Habitat Banks – generating the off-site Biodiversity Units required by developers to satisfy their stringent BNG planning requirements.

Designed by leading ecologists, these award-winning Habitat Banks deliver the best possible outcomes for nature off-site – making on-site green spaces available to use for amenities designed with people in mind.
