This funding scheme is to develop, test and demonstrate technologies that measure the thermal performance of homes using smart meter and other data. These have been termed Smart Meter Enabled Thermal Efficiency Ratings (SMETER).

SMETER Innovation Competition: Phase 2

SMETER Innovation Competition: Phase 2 is for SMETER products which are already at a commercial stage of development. It does not provide further funding for development.

Applicants should have products that are ready to take part (together with the previously funded SMETER products) in the Phase 2 field trials to demonstrate their performance.

BEIS is providing support through funding for an expert contractor to run the field trials and evaluate the different SMETER technologies.

Any published results will be anonymised.
