Question

What counts as an energy-efficiency action under SECR?

Answer

Any measure taken in the reporting year that reduces energy use: insulation of bare hot surfaces, steam-trap repairs, LED retrofits, VSDs, heat recovery. Guidance asks for a description of principal measures — companies that write 'none' invite questions from investors and, increasingly, lenders.
