    Streamlined Energy & Carbon Reporting (SECR)

    Compliant, Insightful SECR Submissions

    View All Carbon Footprint & Reporting Services
    SECR 1

    Why SECR reporting matters

    SECR is more than a regulatory requirement – it’s an opportunity to demonstrate climate leadership, improve operational efficiency, and align with broader ESG and Net Zero goals. Accurate reporting helps you avoid compliance risks, uncover cost-saving opportunities, and build stakeholder trust.

    Who needs to report under SECR?

    SECR applies to quoted companies listed on the London Stock Exchange, and large unquoted companies or LLPs meeting two of the following: £36M+ turnover, £18M+ balance sheet, or 250+ employees. Exemptions may apply for low energy users or where disclosure is impractical or sensitive.

    Our SECR consultancy services

    We manage your SECR submission from start to finish, including data collection, emissions calculation, report drafting, and dashboard integration. Our services also cover methodology documentation, performance commentary, and strategic alignment with Net Zero and ESG frameworks.

    SECR compliance & reporting preparation
    Data collection & validation
    Intensity metrics & performance commentary
    Methodology documentation & audit trail
    SECR dashboards & integration
    ESG & Net Zero alignment
    Year-on-year reporting & benchmarking

    SECR compliance & reporting preparation

    We handle your full SECR submission, from data validation and emissions calculation to report drafting and Scope 3 inclusion. Our approach ensures your reporting is accurate, compliant, and aligned with your wider sustainability strategy. Whether you’re reporting for the first time or refining existing processes, we make SECR straightforward and value-driven.
     
    Our support includes:

       

    • Data validation and consolidation, ensuring energy and emissions data is complete, accurate, and audit-ready
    • Emissions calculation, covering Scope 1 and 2, with optional Scope 3 inclusion where relevant
    • Drafting SECR-compliant reports, tailored to your organisation’s structure and reporting boundaries
    • Integration with wider sustainability reporting, including net zero plans and ESG disclosures
    • Guidance on narrative content, including energy efficiency actions and future reduction plans
    • Support with submission and stakeholder communication, ensuring clarity and confidence in your disclosures
    SECR 2

    Data collection & validation

    We work with your teams to gather accurate energy and emissions data across sites and systems, ensuring consistency and completeness. Our structured approach simplifies the process, reduces reporting risk, and lays the foundation for reliable SECR submissions.

     
    Our support includes:

       

    • Coordinating with internal teams and suppliers to collect energy use data across buildings, fleets, and operations
    • Validating data quality, checking for gaps, anomalies, and inconsistencies
    • Standardising data formats and units to ensure comparability across sources
    • Mapping data to SECR reporting boundaries, including organisational and operational scopes
    • Preparing datasets for emissions calculation, aligned with recognised conversion factors and methodologies
    SECR 2

    Intensity metrics & performance commentary

    We advise on sector-relevant intensity ratios and help craft performance narratives that explain year-on-year changes. This ensures your SECR report not only meets compliance requirements but also communicates progress clearly and credibly to stakeholders.
     
    Our support includes:

       

    • Selecting appropriate intensity metrics, such as emissions per FTE, per square metre, or per unit of output, tailored to your sector and operations
    • Calculating and presenting intensity ratios, with clear methodology and context
    • Developing performance commentary, explaining changes in energy use, emissions, and efficiency over time
    • Linking performance to operational changes, such as growth, consolidation, or energy efficiency measures
    • Ensuring consistency with other disclosures, including net zero plans, ESG reports, and annual statements
    SECR 2

    Methodology documentation & audit trail

    We prepare clear documentation of your calculation methods, assumptions, and exclusions to support audit readiness and ensure transparency. This gives confidence to internal stakeholders, auditors, and regulators that your SECR reporting is robust, consistent, and defensible.
     
    Our support includes:

       

    • Documenting calculation methodologies, including emissions factors, data sources, and conversion tools used
    • Clarifying assumptions and exclusions, with justification and alignment to SECR guidance
    • Maintaining a clear audit trail, linking reported figures to underlying data and decisions
    • Ensuring consistency across reporting years, supporting comparability and continuous improvement
    • Providing supporting evidence, such as spreadsheets, source documents, and commentary for internal or external review
    SECR 2

    SECR dashboards & integration

    We build dashboards to track energy use, emissions trends, and KPIs—streamlining future reporting and unlocking insights. These tools help you visualise performance, monitor progress against targets, and integrate SECR data with wider sustainability and operational reporting.
     
    Our support includes:

       

    • Designing custom dashboards to display energy consumption, emissions breakdowns, and intensity metrics
    • Automating data updates to reduce manual effort and improve reporting efficiency
    • Tracking year-on-year trends, helping you identify patterns and areas for improvement
    • Integrating SECR data with broader ESG or net zero reporting frameworks
    • Providing user-friendly interfaces for internal teams, enabling better decision-making and stakeholder engagement
    SECR 2

    ESG & Net Zero alignment

    We align SECR outputs with Net Zero targets, CDP/TCFD disclosures, and internal carbon reduction plans—ensuring your reporting supports broader sustainability goals. By connecting SECR data with strategic frameworks, we help you tell a coherent story across compliance, ESG, and climate action.
     
    Our support includes:

       

    • Mapping SECR data to Net Zero pathways and interim targets
    • Aligning disclosures with CDP, TCFD, and other ESG frameworks
    • Integrating SECR outputs with internal carbon reduction plans and reporting cycles
    • Supporting consistency across sustainability, financial, and regulatory communications
    • Advising on narrative development to reflect progress and future ambition
    SECR 2

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Is SECR mandatory for my company?

    If you are a quoted company or a large unquoted company or LLP meeting the financial or employee thresholds, SECR likely applies—unless exempted for low energy use or impracticality.

    What needs to be included in SECR?

    Energy consumption, Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions, intensity metrics, and a narrative on energy efficiency actions taken during the year.

    Can SECR data be used for other disclosures?

    Yes—SECR data supports CDP, TCFD, CSRD, and Net Zero tracking. We help you leverage this overlap for consistency and efficiency.

    What’s the deadline?

    SECR must be included in your annual financial reporting, aligned with your financial year-end and Companies House submission dates.
