Smart Meters

The Government wants us to replace our gas and electricity meters with smart ones that tell you how much energy you are using.

It’s hoped it will encourage us to reduce consumption.

But with the estimated £11bn cost being loaded onto customers’ bills, there are questions about whether smart meters can deliver sufficient savings to justify the expense.

Will smart meters make us smarter consumers and encourage long-term behavioural change?

Presented by Charlotte Dubenskij.
