What’s so clever about a smart meter?

What is a Smart Meter?

Smart Meters are the new generation of gas and electricity meters. Gradually, across Great Britain, energy suppliers are replacing the traditional gas and electric meters with new smart meters.

How does a Smart Meter work?

The smart meter sends your gas and electricity readings direct to your energy supplier, so no more rummaging around in a cupboard or letting a stranger into your home to read the meter.

As well as your smart meter, you’ll receive a portable in-home display that clearly shows you how much energy you’re using in pounds and pence.

This makes it easier to spot areas in the home where you may be wasting energy and where you could make changes to reduce it. Not only could you be saving energy, but money too.

How can a Smart Meter benefit me?

There are many ways a Smart Meter can benefit you, some of these are:

  • With a smart meter you’ll be able to keep a closer eye on how much energy you’re spending, plus you’ll receive an accurate, not estimated, bill
  • With a smart prepay meter, you’ll be able to see how much credit you’ve got left, so you can avoid the lights turning off at the most inconvenient times
  • Getting a smart meter is actually quite easy; they’re provided and installed by your energy supplier at a time that suits you
