What is a smart meter?
A smart meter is an advanced version of a traditional gas/electricity meter that automatically sends us readings[5] either half-hourly, daily or monthly. If you prefer, you can still submit your own readings, it’s up to you. As we move towards a greener future, traditional energy meters are being phased out and smart meters are being installed in homes across Great Britain at no extra cost to customers.

The savings value presented is based on a 5% reduction in gas and electricity use for a customer on a tariff covered by Ofgem’s energy price cap, who pays by Direct Debit, with Ofgem’s average annual energy usage for a typical household in Britain (2,700kWh single rate electricity & 11,500kWh gas use) prior to using the Energy Insights tool. We refer to a 5% reduction in energy use as this represents the average energy savings made by a sample of customers who had a smart meter installed and provided consent to sharing half hourly smart meter data and used the Energy Insights tool at least 3 times between May to July 2021 and May to July 2022.
