Taken a look at your energy meters recently? Ever felt that in these days of digital and wireless technology, they look a bit outdated? Surely the days of reading your own meter and waiting for the resulting bill should be consigned to the history books?
Well, there is a better way. British Gas smart meters take energy meters into the 21st century. They show you usage not only of electricity but, for the first time, gas in pounds and pence. This puts you as the customer in control of what you do and how you use energy, giving the opportunity to save money on your bills if you choose.
British Gas’s smart meters comprise one electricity meter, one gas smart meter, a communications hub and a smart energy monitor. They all work together wirelessly to relay your energy usage back and present that information in an easy-to-understand package. British Gas will even set it all up for you.

British Gas has already fitted more than a million smart meters to homes and businesses across Britain. Here’s why you’ll want them in yours, too:
No more estimated bills (or surprises)
The unexpected bill is one of life’s less pleasant aspects. Crawling around in a basement for a reading and then submitting it can be a thing of the past. In conjunction with the smart energy monitor, smart meters not only clearly show you how much energy you are using and how much it costs, but they also relay that data back. So when your bill comes it is 100 per cent accurate.
Easy to analyse energy use
Do you know how much it costs to leave your TV or wireless router on standby at night? Courtesy of smart meters and the smart energy monitor, you will be able to see if changing your energy consumption habits leads to very real savings. You can even set yourself targets for how much money you want to spend per day on gas and electricity and see whether you are achieving your goals.
Clear communication
British Gas will give you personalised energy-saving tips via a Smart Energy Report, based on your home’s gas and electricity use.
British Gas is committed to its customers to help them save money on energy, which is why it is rolling out smart meters in all customers’ homes by 2020.
Smart meters really are a win-win.
