Q: What is SECR data?

A: SECR (Streamlined Energy and Carbon Reporting) is a UK government initiative aimed at simplifying the way companies report their energy use and carbon emissions. It applies to large companies and requires them to disclose their annual energy consumption, carbon emissions, and energy efficiency actions in their financial reports. This is part of an effort to increase transparency around energy use and its environmental impact.

Q: Why do we publish SECR data?

A: As a responsible company, Don-Bur is committed to transparency and reducing our environmental impact. Publishing our SECR data ensures that we comply with UK regulations and allows us to share our efforts to cut emissions and improve energy efficiency. It reflects our dedication to sustainability and our drive to operate in a more environmentally friendly way.

Q: Where can I find our SECR data?

A: Our SECR data is published annually within our company’s financial reports. You can download the most recent reports from the related links section at the bottom of this page.

Q: How is SECR data calculated?

A: Don-Bur reports on Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions. Scope 1 covers direct emissions from our owned or controlled sources, such as fuel consumption in company vehicles and gas use. Scope 2 includes indirect emissions from purchased electricity. We measure our emissions in tonnes of CO2 equivalent (tCO2e) and provide details of energy efficiency actions we've implemented to reduce these emissions.

Q: What steps are we taking to reduce emissions?

A: We are continually looking at ways to reduce our energy usage and emissions, including investment in energy-efficient equipment, upgrading our facilities, and using renewable energy where possible. Our environmental reports highlight these actions and provide insight into our sustainability strategy.
