What’s is SECR?

Streamlined Energy and Carbon Reporting, or SECR for short, is a piece of legislation from the UK Government which replaced the Carbon Reduction Commitment (CRC). SECR came into place from 1st April 2019 and it is a legal requirement for all large UK companies. For SECR compliance businesses need to include a detailed analysis of their energy consumption, greenhouse gas emissions and energy management projects in their annual published accounts. The aim for SECR is to simplify carbon reporting whilst highlighting to companies where they could reduce energy costs, emissions, and fuel consumption. It is an opportunity to make energy policy and management decisions to benefit the company and the planet. SECR has a degree of cross over with the Energy Saving Opportunity Scheme (ESOS) scheme. SECR does not charge for emissions like CRC does, instead the Climate Change Levy (CCL) has been increased to cover reduced tax revenue, from 0.583 p/kWh to 0.847 p/kWh.

Does my company need to comply with SECR?

If your company is classed as “large” in accordance with the Companies Act 2006 you will need to carry out SECR compliance and provide a record in your end of year accounts. If you meet 2 out of the 3 following criteria you will need to do a SECR report:

  • A turnover over £36m
  • A balance sheet over £18m
  • More than 250 employees

In addition, all UK quoted companies (MGHG) will need to submit an SECR report. Businesses that use less than 40MWh over the reporting period are exempt, but a statement confirming your energy use at this level still needs to be included. Public sector organisations are exempt from having to submit SECR reports.
