Energy and Carbon Report

A standalone report containing SECR disclosures for unquoted entities

What is Energy and Carbon Report?

The Energy and Carbon Report is the vehicle for SECR disclosures for large unquoted companies and LLPs. Unlike quoted companies which must include SECR in their Directors' Report, these entities may publish a separate Energy and Carbon Report alongside their annual accounts.

Why It Matters for SECR

Understanding which reporting vehicle applies to your organisation type ensures compliance with SECR filing requirements.

Examples

  • 1

    A private limited company with 300 employees publishes an Energy and Carbon Report

  • 2

    An LLP with £50m turnover includes SECR as a separate report

SECR Reporting Requirements

Must contain the same information as SECR in a Directors' Report: emissions, intensity ratio, methodology, and energy efficiency narrative.
