How do smart meters help me save?

Why are we doing this during an energy crisis?

Smart meters give people better control over their energy and super accurate bills, even more critical while global energy prices are so high.

But it's more than that: smart meters also make the whole energy system cheaper and greener to run. That's key to building a sustainable system that'll protect us from crises like this in the future.

We’re relentless about keeping costs down to pass on savings to our customers – particularly now. We’ve absorbed £150 million in high energy costs so far in the crisis to give our customers the cheapest variable tariff of any major supplier. And we've created an arsenal of support schemes to help those struggling the most.
