Mandatory Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Reporting
from 30 September 2013
This Summer, new legislation was passed that makes reporting of GHG emissions a mandatory requirement for many companies.
If your organisation is a UK registered entity that is traded on the London Stock Exchange (or a UK registered entity whose shares are traded on other exchanges, e.g. European, NYSE or NASDAQ), you will be required to report your carbon footprint as part of your Annual Report.
-
Businesses whose reporting years ending on or after 30 September 2013 will need to report their previous 12 month's emissions - i.e. if your reporting year ends 30 Sept 13, you must reports the GHG emissions for the full year 1 October 2012-30 September 2013
-
You will need to report at least on your organisation's scope 1 and scope 2 emissions of all GHGs (i.e. not just on carbon dioxide generated from burning fuels and electricity use)
-
You will need to include GHGs from all operations within your entity, including your overseas operations
-
Mandatory GHG reporting may be an additional form of reporting that you need to do (e.g. it is additional to the Carbon Reduction Commitment, CRC, and Climate Change Agreements, CCAs)
