How does smart metering work?
Smart meters are intelligent electricity
and gas meters that enable two-way
communications between your home
and us. Your meter will talk to us
remotely, sending us accurate meter
readings and energy usage details. It’ll
also talk to you through your display – a
unit that can sit anywhere in your home.
It communicates remotely with your
smart meters to show you exactly
how much electricity and gas you’re
using. You can look at this information in
real time or by looking back at the last
week, month or year.
Your display collects energy usage information and displays it on a
screen, it also provides a guide of what it’s costing you. Furthermore, you
can see how much carbon dioxide (CO2) your home is producing. All this
at the push of a button!
So what does my new

What are the benefits?
Smart metering technology gives
automatic meter readings, which means:
•
you won’t need to read your meter
and we’ll only come to check it
every two years
•
There’ll be no more estimated
bills unless you move plan or
there’s been a price change.
You’ll see a guide to your energy costs,
and usage in real time, which means:
•
you can spot where you could
make savings
•
you can find ways to make your
home more energy efficient.
