Smart Metering

Accurate billing without revealing when you're home, when you wake, when you leave.

The problem to solve

Smart meters give energy suppliers an extraordinary stream of behavioural data. Granular usage data reveals when you wake, when you leave, when you cook, when you watch television, when you sleep. The supplier needs the total. The infrastructure delivers the entire pattern of your life. The data collected for one purpose is overwhelmingly more revealing than that purpose required.

The solution it enables

The meter seals the period's readings together as one record and proves the total consumption. The supplier verifies it and bills accurately; the readings themselves stay on the meter.

What it looks like

A smart meter in your home records readings through the billing period. At billing time it proves the period's total. Your supplier gets an accurate bill, without the readings that show when you wake, leave or come home.

“Your energy bill is correct, without the readings that show when you're home.”
