The Government recently published a consultation on the consumer engagement strategy for the smart meter roll-out.The consultation sets out the Government's thinking on the objectives, activities and delivery approach for central consumer engagement. A key proposal is for energy suppliers to establish and fund a central delivery body to deliver objectives relating to consumer engagement for smart meters set out by the Government. The Government's current view is that the funding levels would not be prescribed for the delivery body; instead it would be for suppliers to decide on the level of funding necessary to achieve its objectives.
