Smart meters Sample Clauses

Smart meters. If you agree to have a smart meter installed, we will arrange a convenient appointment for the installation. If we or our agent are not let into your property for the appointment, we may charge you the costs of that visit, unless you gave us at least 48 hours' notice of cancellation. If you had a smart meter installed by your previous supplier we will treat it as a traditional credit meter until such time as we notify you that we are able to utilise its smart functionality. If the smart meter is operating in prepayment mode and you wish to continue on a prepayment tariff then we may replace your smart prepayment meter with a traditional prepayment meter.

Smart meters. Smart meters are defined in the 1989 Electricity Act as meters that can send and receive information through an external electronic communication network [192]. By contrast to the definition in EU law (see section 3.2.1 above), it does not refer to the possibility of remote control. Apart from this, the 1989 Electricity Act enables licenced electricity suppliers to provide “a smart meter communication service”[193], although there are some exemption to the license obligation. See for more detail SMILE deliverable D7.3 [194]. On 31 December 2020, there were 23.6 million smart meters in homes and small businesses in Great Britain [195]. This figure represents 42% of all meters in Great Britain [196]. The earlier mentioned Energy White Paper stated that it remains the UK’s ambition “to achieve market-wide rollout of smart meters as soon as practicable”, although without setting an end date [ 197 ]. To accelerate this deployment, Ofgem is setting new rules for suppliers [198]. Until 30 June 2021, suppliers were obliged to take ‘all reasonable steps’ to rollout smart meters. From July 2021, suppliers will have to comply with binding annual installation targets. “Failure to achieve the annual installation targets will be a breach of a supplier’s licence”. In addition to accelerating and better controlling the rollout of smart meters, Ofgem has also decided in April 2021 to extend the deployment of half-hourly settled smart meters to the market, “including for domestic customers for whom it was optional until now”[ 199 ]. It aims at achieving the full deployment of these advanced smart meters by October 2025 [200]. By end 2020, only 1.3 out of the

Smart meters. Smart meters are a technological example of the renewable industry entering the SEP licensing arena19. Smart meters typically consist of: an electricity smart meter, a gas smart meter, a communications hub, and an in-home display (“IHD”). The communications hub creates a network called the Home Area Network (“HAN”): this links the IHD with the smart meter. The IHD shows how much energy is being used or sold back to the grid. The Wide Area Network (“WAN”) is how the communications hub sends the meter readings to the servers of the energy supplier.20 Information is transmitted over a WAN using mobile-phone or radio masts, sent from each property’s communications hub. It is the data transfer via wireless communication protocols for HAN or cellular networks for WAN that involve the use of standardised communications technologies and therefore the use of SEPs. Renewable firms will amplify their patenting practices in order to contribute to standards21 and reap the benefits that arise from having SEPs. Ownership of SEPs can have a dramatic impact on a renewable firm’s performance and market evolution. This is because it can lock markets into specific, often partially proprietary technical solutions for an extended period of time22. Renewable firms will first start to engage in early standard development for technologies such as smart meters or electric vehicles, so that they can influence the adopted technology in the standard23. This is particularly important in the nascent renewable space, where the standards which are developed and set today may well become the fundamental technology platform for emerging technologies and applications in the future. Renewable firms will endeavour to direct the underlying technology of the standard to technologies which they have proprietary interest over, for example, in the form of patent protection. The primary benefit being that a renewable firm will have a portfolio of patents that read onto the standard specification and thus receive royalty revenue for a period of time. Of course, firms can use the SEP status not only for royalty revenue but also to demand cross licences instead (again, highlighting the use of patents as a litigation tool). Thus 19 The role of SEPs in smart meters has already been recognised by the wider industry – with Avanci, a global leader in joint licensing solutions, launching a program for 4G smart meters in 2023. The Avanci 4G Meter licence, offers a single licence covering the 4G,3G and 2G esse...

Smart meters. ERSE published in May 2021 a regulation providing that system operators are responsible for buying and installing smart metering equipment [ 365 ]. These meters have to comply with Ordinance 231/2013 [366]. This Ordinance provides for the technical requirements and functions of smart meters and the rules for information sharing and billing [367]. It also determines the process for the prior cost- benefit analysis as required in EU law [368]. According to article 2 (c), a smart meter is an equipment measuring the electricity flow and used to manage the related data in order to favour an active participation of the consumer to the electricity supply market. This definition therefore does not only rely on the technical capability of the smart meter but also on its aim: allowing the involvement of consumers in the electricity system. The technical requirements are detailed in annex I of the ordinance and specify that smart meters must realise a 15-minute measurement at least [369]. If all smart meters are indeed deployed with a 15-minute measuring and settlement capability, then, as explained earlier in the UK section, this would allow a wide use of distributed flexibility resources [370]. The first cost-benefit analysis realised in Portugal in order to assess the opportunity of deploying smart meters was negative. However, the second cost-benefit analysis of 2015 provided some positive results and the deployment started shortly after [ 371 ]. By January 2021, more than 50% of all connection points in the country where equipped with a smart meter and the target for a full deployment is set at the end of 2024 [372].
