Top ways to make your home energy efficient for less, revealed for Big Energy Saving Week 2019

It's vital we have a renewable energy system, or we risk a full blown crisis

Former Dancing on Ice contestant Max Evans swapped his skates for ghillies today in a demonstration of how smart meters can make your energy use completely visible.

Smart Energy GB has been recognised as a centre of excellence for wellbeing by 'Great Place to Work'

This follows the posting of a misleading video about smart meters on the social media site

The benefits of smart meters outweigh the costs by billions of pounds, with nearly two thirds of people with a smart meter feeling more in control of their energy usage

More than 250,000 second generation smart meters have now been installed

Responding to Ofgem's proposals for a smarter, fairer and cleaner energy system, Robert Cheesewright, Director of Corporate Affairs at Smart Energy GB said: "The rollout of smart meters to every home in Great Britain is key to enabling a fully smart, clean and greener energy grid for the nation. We welcome the announcement from Ofgem today that could lead to savings for consumers and also greatly incentivise more time of use tariffs for those consumers who wish to use them. Without a truly smart grid we won't be able to meet our climate change targets nor will generators, energy suppliers and networks be able to balance future supply with the anticipated increase in demand as we see more electric vehicles plugged into the network."

New research shows how smart meter owners are using the devices to save energy
