Our preference is to report on a calendar year to help with the accuracy of our reporting, however you can set an alternative reporting period. Where you set an alternative reporting period we will average the amounts across the calendar year. We encourage project owners to fill out annual report data on a calendar year reporting period (01/01-31/12) where possible.
