Jonathan Reynolds – 2015 Parliamentary Question to the Department for Energy and Climate Change

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Jonathan Reynolds on 2015-02-12.

To ask the Secretary of State for Energy and Climate Change, how many households that have had a smart meter installed in their property have also had one or more unique energy efficiency measures installed in their property under the Energy Companies Obligation scheme.

The Department’s quarterly data on smart meter installations is currently collected from energy suppliers in an aggregated format, rather than at a household level.

As a result, it is not possible to ascertain through data linking how many Energy Companies’ Obligation measures (where the data are collected at household level, and reported on monthly as National Statistics: https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/green-deal-and-energy-company-obligation-eco-statistics) have been fitted in households where smart meters have been installed.
