Streamlined Energy & Carbon Reporting (SECR)

Unlock the benefits of carbon and energy reporting with SECR.

Streamlined Energy and Carbon Reporting (SECR) is a mandatory UK legislation, requiring obligated businesses to report their global energy consumption and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions within their financial accounts annually. SECR was introduced in 2019, replacing the Carbon Reduction Commitment (CRC) Scheme.

SECR aims to encourage the implementation of energy efficiency measures and bring visibility of carbon performance alongside financial performance reporting; helping to drive the decarbonisation of the UK power system and boost cost savings for businesses.

Beyondly's hassle-free solution helps businesses navigate the complex requirements of SECR, allowing them to achieve compliance with confidence.

Am I obligated?

SECR applies to quoted companies of any size. Limited liability partnerships and UK incorporated unquoted companies must also comply with the legislation if they meet two or more of the qualification criteria:

  • 250 or more employees,
  • Turnover in excess of £36m, or
  • Balance sheet in excess of £18m

* Organisations using less than 40,000 kWh per annum will not be required to report

The Beyondly team always goes beyond expectations. From initial consultation to project completion, their dedication to environmental solutions and client satisfaction shines through.

Obligated companies must report and submit the following to Companies House annually:

  • Energy consumption and associated GHG emissions within their financial accounts for Companies House.
  • At least one intensity metric e.g. tonnes of CO2e/£m sales revenue.
  • Measures taken to improve energy efficiency.
  • Methodology used. 

Reporting of Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions is mandatory under SECR, with Scope 3 (value chain emissions) reporting currently voluntary under the framework.

A complete approach to sustainability

Why does it matter and where to begin! 

The climate crisis has led to increased demand on companies to assess and improve their environmental performance. Pressure comes from all stakeholders; investors, government, customers, employees, and the public. Therefore, in order to continue meeting expectations and grow as a business, it is crucial to develop and implement robust sustainability strategies.  

The world of sustainability is complex, and with evolving demands and sustainability jargon it can be difficult to know where to start.  An additional challenge is that it can vary for every business, with the need to consider specifics for your industry and business model. This is where Beyondly's sustainability strategy can be tailored to your specific business, allowing you to excel in your industry and where it counts for you. 

A sustainability strategy can help businesses create long-term benefits for their employees and business while ensuring they have a positive impact on the environment. 

It's time to prepare for the future and embrace the demands of your stakeholders.
