Smart Meters

What are smart meters all about? Come and talk to us at NWCAB and find out! Citizens Advice is the statutory energy representative for energy consumers, so we are currently gathering and sharing all the information you need to know about the smart meter rollout in the UK.

Smart meters let you see how much energy you are using; you can identify the areas where you’re using a lot of energy and might want to make changes to reduce it, helping you put a stop to any energy wastage. They also help prevent inaccurate bills and save you time by submitting meter readings automatically.
