What are smart meters?

Smart meters show you exactly how much gas and electricity you’re using and what you’re spending in pounds and pence. This information is displayed in near real time on a handy portable screen known as an in-home display. Smart meters also send automatic meter readings to us, your energy supplier.

Everyone in Britain will get one. Smart meters will be fitted in 26 million homes by 2020 as part of a national roll out. It’s the biggest improvement to our energy system in decades.
