Re: Compatible with all suppliers?
New meter every time I change?
In theory, no. Detailed rules and a standard specification (SMETS2) are supposed to mean that the new supplier simply uses the existing asset and pays to use it. Much like suppliers pay to use old style meters.
What's that going to cost us as consumers?
£11bn if you choose to believe government.
This has to be the worst idea ever.
I don't know. It's not a good or sensible idea. But HS2 is worse, and five times the cost (at least). And a holiday to the "Islamic State" sounds like an even worse idea, regardless of cost.
