Smart meters

Giving you greater insight into your business’ ongoing energy usage, smart meters are becoming an increasingly important part of the wider business energy plan. Maintain closer control over your energy usage and develop strategies to reduce utilities spend; smart meters can ensure you have all the information you need regarding your business energy usage. 

So, in line with the UK Government’s Industrial Strategy to create a smarter, more energy efficient grid, we’re rolling out smart meters to eligible microbusiness customers.

What is a smart meter?

Smart meters are the next generation of gas and electricity meters. They measure your energy usage and use a secure, wireless network to send meter readings to your energy supplier each month. Read our frequently asked questions about smart meters here. 

Why should I get a smart meter installed?

Smart meters offer a range of benefits, allowing you to take advantage of the following features:

1. Automated meter readings – you no longer need to contact your supplier to provide them with your latest meter readings. With a smart meter, this data is sent automatically each month. Find out more about AMR and smart metering, here.
2. More accurate bills – smart meters mean saying goodbye to estimated meter readings. That also means your bills will be calculated based on your actual energy usage.
3. They’re free – there are no installation costs incurred by customers who have a smart meter installed.
