Your annual carbon report

Covering financial years 2025/26

Welcome to our carbon monitoring page aimed at supporting you complete your annual carbon report.

A key criterion of both England's Public Sector Decarbonisation Scheme (PSDS) and Scotland's Public Sector Heat Decarbonisation Fund (SPSHDF) is to measure and monitor energy and carbon savings at project completion for three years. This information will help Salix and our scheme funders to better understand the impact of funding and identify opportunities to improve the implementation of low carbon heating and energy efficiency measures across different programmes. 

From 2 September 2026 we will issue a new carbon reporting form. The older version of the form is invalid.

This year we are collecting data from projects that have either partially completed or fully completed before the end of March 2025. To support this, grant recipients are now required to complete and submit the Annual Carbon Report for the 2025/26 financial year by 14 October 2026. This is applicable to:

Public Sector Decarbonisation Scheme

  • Phase 3a Single-Year grant recipients for their third year of reporting 
  • Phase 3a Multi–Year (2 year) grant recipients for their second year of reporting
  • Phase 3b Single-Year grant recipients for their second year of reporting
  • Phase 3b Multi-Year grant recipients for their first year of reporting
  • Phase 3c Single-Year grant recipients for their first year of reporting

Scotland's Public Sector Heat Decarbonisation Fund

  • Phase 1 Single-Year grant recipients for their first year of reporting

Our work with you

Every day our teams at Salix are working with organisations across the UK to help reduce our carbon footprint. We’re keen to support the public sector, and the housing sector create more energy efficient buildings – and more comfortable places in which we can all thrive. Every day we see how communities are impacted by our work across the UK. It’s important that we measure and monitor the results of the projects we deliver alongside our stakeholders. Measuring energy use is essential for combating climate change, it provides the data needed to develop targeted reduction strategies and helps identify where cost savings can be made on energy bills. 

Thank you for completing our carbon report form and we look forward to seeing it returned by 14 October 2026.
