SECR Compliance Services

SECR stands for Streamlined Energy and Carbon Reporting, a UK government regulation that requires large companies to report their energy use and associated greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions annually.

The framework was introduced in 2019 and applies to:

• Quoted companies listed on a UK stock exchange
• Large unquoted companies (meeting 2 of: 250+ employees, £36m+ turnover, or £18m+ balance sheet)
• Large LLPs (Limited Liability Partnerships)

SECR aims to increase transparency, reduce emissions, and help businesses cut energy costs through better awareness and action.

Beyond legal compliance, SECR offers strategic advantages:

• Improved energy awareness – Helps organisations understand and manage energy use
• Cost reduction – Identifying areas of waste leads to financial savings
• Stronger ESG positioning – Contributes to investor and stakeholder confidence
• Better decision-making – Reliable data supports sustainability planning
• Avoidance of penalties – Failure to report can result in reputational damage and legal consequences

Inteb partnered with a renowned London-based Theatre Group to deliver their first compliant SECR report. The client previously lacked centralised energy reporting and had not fully accounted for their carbon emissions. Our team collected and consolidated Scope 1, 2, and 3 energy consumption data across all sites, performing full GHG emissions calculations. We then produced a clear, accurate SECR report aligned with regulatory requirements. To support long-term sustainability planning, we also developed custom consumption and emissions baselines across key sources. These benchmarks now guide their corporate carbon strategy. This project demonstrates how Inteb’s SECR expertise helps cultural institutions meet compliance, improve transparency, and establish robust foundations for environmental performance tracking.
