"We've installed more than half a million smart meters in our customers' properties over the past four years. Most customers say they track their energy use more closely once they have a smart meter and that they’re satisfied with their bills, and we hope this feedback will be echoed by tenants here. We'd encourage any tenants interested in learning more about their energy use and in lowering their bills to look out for their letter to ensure they don't miss out."
