CIRIA completes first phase of B£ST updates


The first phase of updating B£ST, our Benefits Estimation Tool – for valuing blue-green infrastructure completed. 

We have updated the values, benefit categories which now includes Natural Flood Management. Along with these updates we have made B£ST easier to use and include the ability to make quicker, but coarser estimates.

The next stage of the work is to update B£ST to provide Natural Capital accounting functionality. 

If you have an interest in the valuation of blue-green infrastructure and know about Natural Capital accounting, we would appreciate your input in a survey

The survey captures views on what approaches to Natural Capital accounting your organisation either uses or is considering using; we would be interested in thoughts on potential accounting approaches. 

Complete the survey and share it with your colleagues.
The survey takes no more than 10 minutes and closes on 11 March 2019.
