Smart Meter Targets Framework: consultation on minimum installation requirements for Year 3 (2024) and Year 4 (2025)

Overview

The four-year smart metering Targets Framework came into effect on 1 January 2022. This Framework sets energy suppliers in Great Britain annual installation targets on a trajectory to 100% smart coverage by end 2025, subject to an annual allowance or ‘tolerance level’ that applies across industry as a percentage of each supplier’s customer base.

We welcome responses from energy suppliers, as well as from smart metering and energy industry stakeholders and other interested parties.
