What benefit will I get from a smart meter?

Smart meters will only reflect the electricity you’ve actually used. By providing you with greater access to accurate information on your energy usage, you will have greater control over your energy consumption. By changing your behaviour based on your new insights, you can reduce your bills and your carbon footprint.

Having a smart meter installed is just the first step. To really get the most out of your smart meter, you must sign up to a smart meter electricity plan.

Electric Ireland’s smart meter plans are called Home Electric+ and our existing customers can upgrade to a smart Home Electric+ plan easily in their online account for free.

For more information on smart meters and smarter services go to the Electric Ireland Smart Meters page.
