SECR

Streamlined Energy and Carbon Reporting (SECR) is a relatively new, mandatory carbon and energy reporting scheme for large UK companies.

Mandatory

The UK has made it mandatory for 11,900 businesses to report their energy and carbon emissions on an annual basis, and any efficiency measures they’ve taken throughout their financial year.

Qualification

Criteria for qualification:

  • Companies quoted on a stock exchange
  • Companies that aren’t quoted, but qualify as “large”
  • LLPs that qualify as “large”

 

Clients are regarded as “large” if they meet at least two of the following criteria:

  • Turnover of £36 million or over
  • A balance sheet total of £18 million or over
  • 250 employees or more

Whilst fulfilment of SECR can be seen as an administrative burden and a compliance exercise, benefits include:

awareness of how and when energy is used lower energy bills increased transparency for stakeholders/investors lessen administrative burdens a starting point for your Net Zero strategy
