Data on the number of smart electricity and gas meters installed is set out in the Government’s ‘Smart Meters, Great Britain, Quarterly report to end September 2015’, published on 22 December 2015:

The roll-out is making good progress with more than 2 million meters now operating under the Programme.

Data is not collected from energy suppliers in a format that allows details of the number of smart meters installed in London or each London borough to be produced.
