- The asset register functionality in M&R is entirely optional. It has been designed to enable public bodies to understand and explore their energy and emissions data at a more granular level.
- There is currently no obligation on public bodies to report any data via the asset register as part of the annual reporting cycle.
- An asset is an energy-using entity in your organisation. You are free to specify the scope of your own assets. Examples could include a building, a group of buildings, a floor within a building, a vehicle, a fleet of vehicles, a water treatment facility, a network of public lighting, etc.
- Assets can be aggregated into asset groups via a hierarchical structure.
- The asset register is distinct from the building register (which is a mandatory reporting requirement). However, there is a relationship between both, in that all buildings in the building register are automatically included in the asset register. But not all assets in the asset register are included in the building register.
- The asset functionality is being deployed in phases in early 2025. This help wiki will be updated with additional content shortly.
