CHAPTER IIEFFICIENCY IN ENERGY USE

Article 9F1Metering for gas and electricity

F11

Member States shall ensure that, in so far as it is technically possible, financially reasonable and proportionate in relation to the potential energy savings, for electricity and natural gas final customers are provided with competitively priced individual meters that accurately reflect their actual energy consumption and that provide information on the actual time of use.

Such a competitively priced individual meter shall always be provided when:

a

an existing meter is replaced, unless this is technically impossible or not cost-effective in relation to the estimated potential savings in the long term;

b

a new connection is made in a new building or a building undergoes major renovations, as set out in Directive 2010/31/EU.

a

they shall ensure that the metering systems provide to final customers information on actual time of use and that the objectives of energy efficiency and benefits for final customers are fully taken into account when establishing the minimum functionalities of the meters and the obligations imposed on market participants;

b

they shall ensure the security of the smart meters and data communication, and the privacy of final customers, in compliance with relevant Union data protection and privacy legislation;

c

in the case of electricity and at the request of the final customer, they shall require meter operators to ensure that the meter or meters can account for electricity put into the grid from the final customer’s premises;

d

they shall ensure that if final customers request it, metering data on their electricity input and off-take is made available to them or to a third party acting on behalf of the final customer in an easily understandable format that they can use to compare deals on a like-for-like basis;
