How Do Smart Meters Help To Save Energy?

Smart Meters are a great way to more accurately monitor and manage the gas and energy usage in your home. The Government aims for everyone in the United Kingdom to be offered one at no cost over the next few years. So how do smart meters help to save energy?

How Do Smart Meters Help To Save Energy?

There a number of main benefits to having a Smart Meter in your home:

No more guessing

Your gas and electricity smart meters will send your usage directly to your energy supplier, meaning that there will be no more estimated bills for energy usage; you will only pay for what you use.

Automatic Readings

None of us enjoys taking our meter readings. Smart meters will save you from this hassle, by automatically taking your meter readings and sending them directly to your supplier – no more rooting around the under stairs cupboard with a torch!

Easy Monitoring

Your smart meter also comes with an ‘in-home display’ that communicates wirelessly with the meter itself, showing you in real-time just how much you are spending on gas and electricity so you can keep a very close eye on your usage and prevent unexpected big bills.

Connected with your smart boiler

Many new boilers now include full-colour touchscreen display panels, to make it even easy to understand the status of your boiler.
