Smart meter accuracy
Are you tired of paying more than you should for your energy? Are estimated bills getting you down? With a smart meter, you can be confident that your energy bills reflect your energy use. You can not only track how much energy you use, but your meter readings will also be sent automatically. Making estimated bills a thing of the past.
Smart meters are accurate
Smart meters are just as accurate as traditional meters. By law, all smart meters have to be approved by and certified by the Office of Product Safety & Standards to prove their accuracy.
But what's more, your smart meter comes with a portable screen known as the in-home display. This screen can show you your energy usage in near-real time.
Only pay for what you use
Smart meters track your energy use and send automatic meter readings to your supplier for you. This means that you'll only pay for what you use and that your supplier will be updated regularly.
