Renewable Energy
Measure and manage the impacts of large-scale energy projects using the big data generated from environmental DNA surveys
Easily map biodiversity at scale
Meet regulator requirements
Evaluate conservation success
The clean energy revolution must deliver for nature too
With global energy demand set to increase 30% by 2040, mitigating biodiversity impacts has never been more important.
Environmental DNA (eDNA) provides biodiversity data in unprecedented detail to inform robust decision-making. Feeding into all stages of the mitigation hierarchy, this helps track progress towards goals such as Net Positive Impact or No Net Loss of biodiversity and ensure the best outcomes for nature. Samples collected by non-specialist on-site personnel enable cost-efficient year-round monitoring.
Use our aquatic eDNA kits to detect and monitor rare, endangered and invasive species in rivers, lakes and oceans. Data can also highlight ecosystem effects including loss of connectivity in rivers and the effectiveness of mitigation solutions such as fish passes.
Unlock insights from insect and soil communities to track impacts in terrestrial habitats.
Include DNA-based biodiversity monitoring in your ecological survey design with NatureMetrics
DNA-based monitoring with NatureMetrics
NatureMetrics makes eDNA surveys easy. Our end-to-end service includes easy-to-use sampling kits, logistics support, laboratory analysis and data processing. We provide professional reports and support with interpretation and data analysis where required.
Our expert team can also help you design an eDNA sampling campaign to suit your project’s location and needs, and we can provide training for your staff and contractors, either online, in person or on-site – get in touch to find out more.
Additional services, such as ecological statistics and mapping, may be added at any time during the project. We can work with you to understand how to use our data to feed into your wider environmental strategy.
Stand at the forefront of innovation and standardisation in detecting, monitoring and managing biodiversity with NatureMetrics’ iDNAture sampling kits.
Our kits are optimised for use by non-experts (such that anyone can collect a quality sample) and contain all you need to begin sampling right away.
Samples you can send to our labs for analysis include:
eDNA from water
DNA from soils and sediments
Invertebrates
