Benefits from environmental policies are often unpriced “non-market values” (NMVs). Environmental agencies struggle to know how best to measure these relatively intangible benefits, but doing so is important to ensure value for money from public investments. Environmental economists have developed and applied a wide range of methods for estimating NMVs. The methods vary in their comprehensiveness, accuracy and cost. Yet no rigorous tool is available to assess (a) which NMV method is best to implement, accounting for its cost and its potential to improve decisions, or (b) whether any NMV method improves decisions enough to warrant its cost. In creating such a tool, this project will deliver a key breakthrough in environmental economics.

环境政策带来的好处通常是未定价的“非市场价值”（NMV）。环境机构很难知道如何最好地衡量这些相对无形的好处，但这样做对于确保公共投资的价值非常重要。应用了多种方法来估计 NMV，这些方法的全面性、准确性和成本各不相同，但没有严格的工具可以评估 (a) 哪种 NMV 方法最适合实施，并考虑其成本及其改进决策的潜力。 ， 或者(b) 任何 NMV 方法是否足以改善决策以保证其成本。在创建这样一个工具时，该项目将在环境经济学方面实现重大突破。
