• If we want a fully clean, smart renewable grid with decentralised production of electricity to individual, small and medium renewable producers (eg small wind farms/solar farms on farmers fields) then smart meters are critical at providing the inputs thst allow the grid to balance demand and supply.

    Nice idea, but this is decades away, if ever, though isn't it?

  • Octopus were talking about introducing a tariff like this at one point, don't think it ever happened though.

    My gas meter has gone dumb too btw. I'm with BG though so I've given up trying to get them to fix it.

  • Octopus and OVO are probably the two (maybe Eon Next?) that may well push for smart eligible tariffs given their background. Wouldn’t surprise me if we see a similar distinction as we see with DD vs PayG where suppliers give extra incentives to “go smart” as it’s a win both ways
