Question to the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy:

To ask Her Majesty's Government how many households are yet to receive smart meters; and when they anticipate the smart meter roll out will be completed.

The smart meter rollout is making good progress, with 26.4 million smart and advanced meters in homes and small businesses across Great Britain by end September 2021, including 24.8 million smart meters in domestic premises. Nearly half (47%) of meters in households are smart meters.

The Government has confirmed that a new four-year policy framework with fixed minimum annual installation targets for energy suppliers will commence on 1 January 2022 to drive the consistent, long-term investment needed to deliver the rollout.
