Smart Metering
From EON web site:
Whats it all about?
Smart Meters are a new type of energy meter, which offer a number of benefits to homes and businesses. At E.ON weve been carrying out various trials as part of our commitment to the changing energy market.
Smart Meters potentially offer reliable and accurate billing based on actual meter reads, which are collected remotely and removes the need for someone to read your meter manually.
Whats in it for the customer?
- Saving time Unlike traditional meters, Smart Meters are read remotely. This means you wont need to answer the door to meter readers, fill in a card or even provide readings online.
- Saving money
By automating the whole process youll only be billed for the energy youve used giving you more control and potentially saving you money. There will be fewer inaccurate estimated bills and meter reading mistakes.
- Saving energy
More accurate readings also means that youll get better information about the energy youve used. Using these figures to change the way we use energy is another way we could help fight climate change. Along with our Consumption Tracker* service and Go Green product, we can really help you do your bit for the environment.
