UK Begins National Smart Meters for Smart Grid
In revamping its climate strategy (CO2e cut of 34% by 2020) the UK is requiring the country's 26 million homes and millions of businesses in the country to have high technology meters installed by 2020, enabling remote readings that give customers accurate, real-time info on their energy consumption. The meters are a prerequisite for 'smart grids' to sell back on-site generated electricity. Savings are estimated between £2.5 billion and £3.6 billion over the next twenty years. RRI tracks the UK as a Green Plan nation.
