Description: The Programme aims to replace existing traditional gas and electricity meters across Great Britain with smart gas and electricity meters resulting in a cleaner, cheaper and more reliable energy system. Smart meters are a key enabler of technologies such as electric vehicles, smart tariffs and microgeneration to be efficiently integrated with renewable energy sources, underpinning the cost-effective delivery of Government's net zero commitment.
DCA (RAG) Amber
DCA text: Compared to financial year 20/21-Q4, the DCA rating at 21/22-Q4 remained at Amber The IPA and SRO DCA (DCA) rating has continued to be Amber, due primarily to the following factors: -There were 27.8 million smart and advanced meters operating across Great Britain as of end December 2021. -A new 4 year regulatory framework was implementation on 1st January 2022. -Re-mobilisation support across industry delivery partners was established to respond to the impact of COVID-19. Industry has made good progress in re-mobilising workforces and BEIS has continued to provide support to industry. -Customer smart meter eligibility is increasing following positive developments on resolution of residual technical issues. -BEIS continues to work with energy suppliers to increase consumer uptake through improved consumer engagement and operational fulfilment activities, supported by consumer policies, and to drive faster progress towards a market wide roll-out.
