UK Government statistics reveal that approximately 36% of households lack electricity smart meters, raising concerns about meeting national targets. Comparative data from European countries shows varying levels of progress in smart meter deployment, with France leading at nearly 93% of homes equipped, followed by Spain and Italy. https://lnkd.in/eFTe_RzN #energy #utilities #smartenergy #smartmetering #smartmeters #digitalisation

UK struggles behind Europe in smart meter race. Nearly a third of UK households remain without electricity smart meters, causing manufacturers to flee the market, according to a new report.

Teleswitch (RTS) energy meters should have the devices replaced by 30 June 2025 to avoid losing access to heating and hot water. That is according to a tough new regime backed by regulator Ofgem. This will see energy firms replace meters in just eight months rather than the original timescale of four years, which would have meant hundreds of thousands of people may have had disrupted energy. Utilising a direct outreach service enables energy suppliers to proactively contact all customers with RTS meters providing detailed information about the switch-off, its implications, and the steps required to avoid disruptions. Paying only on output ensures increased efficiency and reduced costs, paying only for what is achieved, helping businesses avoid unnecessary expenses. We also ensure that a full visual survey of the meters is conducted, ensuring that aborted jobs are dramatically reduced. Can we assist with your smart meter bookings?

Isn't it time to help new tenants with energy costs? One effective way is by installing a smart meter during the void period. Our void energy service offers smart meter installations for void properties. Studies show that households with smart meters can save around 3-5% on energy bills on average. The key lies in monitoring energy usage accurately and adjusting consumption based on the smart meter's in-home display. Key points to note about smart meters and savings: 💡 Smart meters require active usage of the provided information to see savings. 📉 They ensure better billing accuracy by eliminating estimated bills with real-time energy data. 🔋 Time-of-use tariffs can further reduce bills, as some providers offer lower electricity costs during specific times with smart meters. 📱 The in-home display is essential for monitoring energy consumption and identifying areas for energy-saving changes. Let's empower tenants to take control of their energy usage and save on costs with smart meter installations. Contact the team today for more information.

This is so not true "The mass roll-out of smart meters began 12 years ago, with the goal of helping people save money on their bills, while lowering carbon emissions as part of the government’s net zero plan." There is absolutely no way smart meters save you money unless 1, You have an EV and therefore qualify for dual tariff 2. You have solar panels and can sell back your export and qualify for dual tariff to charge your batteries Otherwise they only benefit the utility companies who no longer need to send someone to read meters and for demand management. They can be used to throttle or even cut off supply if the grid is overloaded. e.g. too many EV's charging at peak times. NOR do they cut Co2, that is an absolute lie. I wouldn't have gotten one had it not been for my solar plant. They are NOT a legal requirement despite some utility companies sending threatening letters saying they have a warrant to break into your home to install one. https://lnkd.in/dyHiXxpk

Shock... For a multitude of issues from Smart Meters not taking accurate readings to the wrong hubs being applied - Customers are fed up! Another being DNO + Supplier relationships being non-existent. So if you have old generation infrastructure, Current generation Smart Meters won't work. I feel for the Engineers because half of the notes aren't passed on, so they turn up without the right equipment. Now suppliers - If you properly plan based on each customers situation you will stop booking instillations for fun where nothing gets done - wasting customer time and your engineers time. Took me 4 appointments for my Smart Meter fitting to work... Do you think others have that patience. Suppliers do better!
