Benefits of Smart Meters for Business

Installing a smart meter can be a great investment for your business. Smart meters replace your manual energy meter and automatically send meter readings to energy suppliers through wireless signals.

Business Smart Meter Advantages

With a smart meter, you do not need to take regular meter readings. You also do not have to pay bills based on estimates. Instead, you will be charged on time for your actual business energy usage.

Knowing how much you spend on energy helps you budget better. It also helps you manage energy waste. This can lower your bills and reduce your carbon footprint.

The data transferred by your commercial smart meter is kept very secure. GCHQ ensure that smart meters comply with the highest data security standards, and the NCSC prevents hackers from accessing the smart meter network.

The low-frequency radio waves that smart meters emit are safe, cause no health risks, and are lower than common household items such as phones and TVs.

If you have a second-generation smart meter, you can easily switch energy suppliers, allowing you to find the right supplier for your business.

Smart Meter Installation

Smart meters are quick and easy to install, and there is no additional cost to install them. It normally takes about an hour to have a smart meter installed; the engineer will undertake a safety check on your current meter, temporarily switch off the electricity or gas, and then install the new smart meter.

Smart meters are a good financial move for your company and will reduce your bills, save time, and allow you to keep a finger on the pulse of your energy consumption. To learn more about the energy services Apertus Group offer, get in touch.
