Hendry says consumers key to smart metering with consultation to come
Hendry said the results of early trials had shown the government was right to mandate in-home displays with meters, and he promised to address all customer concerns including the effect of wifi and a code of practice for installation visits.
The latter issue had already been raised by earlier speakers, who said that although a sales pitch during installation would be wrong there was a «fine line between marketing and good advice».
Decc was praised by speakers for its programme management and the energy minister promised a raft of other consultations in the new year.
In a nod to the time invested by the industry in the programme he said he appreciated that the industry had already dealt with many consultations, but he said that meant Decc was able to proceed on a consensus basis – and said he would welcome alternative forms of engagement.
He said that among the consultations there would be a new one on technical specifications for meters, which must meet industry needs for interoperability and network management. Final specifications would be submitted to the EU for approval before they become the basis for new conditions to be written into supplier licences.
