Nature Projects and Ecological Compensation

Kestävä kehitys ja ESG
Are you looking for a reliable partner to manage your company's nature project or ecological compensation project from start to finish?
National and EU regulations related to biodiversity, reporting requirements (including TNFD, CSRD, and others), as well as voluntary sustainability commitments, are continuously increasing. In Finland and elsewhere, nature conservation legislation has been reformed in recent years, resulting in the rapid mainstreaming of biodiversity markets and ecological compensation processes. Companies are increasingly expected to take concrete actions to identify, reduce, and compensate for their impact on nature.
A well-designed nature project helps manage regulatory and land-use risks associated with business operations and development projects while strengthening the company’s overall sustainability profile. The documentation and monitoring generated through nature projects support sustainability reporting and help meet the growing information needs of investors, customers, and other stakeholders through officially verified processes.
Our service
With the support of DGE Finland’s experts and trusted partners, you can ensure that your project progresses smoothly from planning through regulatory processes to implementation. We act as the project’s lead coordinator, overseeing the entire process and managing collaboration with all relevant external stakeholders.
The process begins with a feasibility assessment, during which we evaluate the project’s implementation potential and determine the most suitable approach for progressing it. The assessment includes, among other things, an evaluation of the suitability of voluntary ecological compensation, the applicability of different instruments available under Chapter 11 of the Finnish Nature Conservation Act, and a preliminary review of project costs and timelines. Conducting a feasibility assessment does not commit your company to implementing a nature project. The assessment can also be commissioned and invoiced as a separate stand-alone project.
We assist organizations whose activities impact biodiversity in planning and implementing voluntary ecological compensation projects in accordance with current regulations and best practices. This may include the implementation of biodiversity enhancement measures within a compensation area or the establishment of conservation-based compensation measures. We also design and implement voluntary biodiversity actions under the Finnish Nature Conservation Act, as well as other projects aimed at enhancing biodiversity and delivering measurable benefits to nature.
