Streamlined Energy and Carbon Reporting (SECR) Consultants
Streamlined Energy and Carbon Reporting (SECR) is a statutory framework designed to increase transparency around energy use, greenhouse gas emissions, and efficiency actions across UK organisations.
What is SECR?
SECR was introduced by the UK Government in April 2019 to replace the Carbon Reduction Commitment (CRC) scheme and to align corporate reporting with the UK’s wider net zero targets. It requires qualifying companies to disclose their energy consumption, associated greenhouse gas emissions (Scope 1, Scope 2 and the mandatory elements of Scope 3), and to develop an appropriate Key Performance Indicator (KPI) to track performance over time. Organisations must also report on any energy efficiency measures implemented during the financial year within their Directors’ Report.
Unlike some earlier schemes, SECR has been designed to be simpler, more transparent, and more impactful, encouraging organisations not only to report their data but also to actively monitor, manage, and reduce their energy use and emissions.
Legal Requirements
SECR applies to all quoted companies, and to large unquoted companies and LLPs that meet at least two of the following criteria:
More than 250 employees
Annual turnover of more than £36 million
Annual balance sheet total of more than £18 million
Qualifying organisations must report:
UK energy use (electricity, gas, transport fuels, and other sources)
At least one intensity metric (e.g. tCO₂e per £m turnover, or per floor area)
A description of energy efficiency actions taken during the reporting year
Non-compliance may result in penalties or reputational damage, as SECR disclosures are filed publicly with Companies House.
