According to Department of Energy and Climate Change, "The rollout of smart meters will be a major national project. It will involve a visit to every home and many businesses in Great Britain, and the replacement of around 53 million gas and electricity meters. Smart meters can pave the way for a transformation in the way energy is supplied and used. They will provide consumers with near real-time information about energy use, and more accurate bills."
