England's mandatory biodiversity net gain requirement came into force in February 2024. Now in its second year in, the market is real but opaque.

 -  No pricing benchmarks.

 -  No supply gap data.

 -  No independent read on who controls what.

​

The UK BNG Market Intelligence Report 2026 changes that.

 

Built from direct analysis of the Natural England Biodiversity Gain Site Register  every one of the 236 registered sites, every one of the 3,795 habitat parcel, every operator combined with original research and a dedicated demand model for the National Significant Infrastructure Project (NSIP) pipeline showing 95 active projects.

​

This is not a policy summary or a regulatory overview. It is market intelligence: who supplies, where the gaps are, what demand is coming, and what it costs.
