Smart Meter Volumes - March 2022
There are two main types of smart meters – the older models known as SMETS 1 (Smart Meter Equipment Technical Specifications) and the newer versions that were rolled out in 2018, known as SMETS 2. While SMETS2 meters offer many of the same benefits as SMETS1 meters, they contain the most up-to-date technology to help make life easier – especially if you ever want to switch supplier.
This dataset contains the volumes of SMETS1, SMETS2 and non smart meters. The non smart meters will include the likes of pre-paid, dial and standard meters.
