Conservation Covenants Nationally Infrastructure
Deliver mandatory BNG and environmental mitigation at scale
Why might you use a Conservation Covenant as a National Significant Infrastructure Project (NSIPs) ?
For major infrastructure schemes, Conservation Covenants provide a consistent and scalable legal framework for environmental compliance. After 2 November 2026, NSIPs will require 10% biodiversity net gain and will require a Conservation Covenant when needing offsite units.
Key benefits:
- Meet mandatory Biodiversity Net Gain requirements (10%+ uplift) (after 2 November 2026 in England)
- Secure long-term mitigation across complex and linear projects
- Reduce reliance on multiple Section 106 agreements
- Improve delivery certainty across multi-phase developments
- Provide standardised legal structure for environmental commitments
We support large-scale, high-complexity infrastructure delivery, offering a Responsible Body service that reduces legal fragmentation and improves delivery certainty.
