ESMIG has released today its "Guide to Smart Metering"

Brussels, 8 September 2009 - Smart Metering will revolutionise the availability and usefulness of consumption data. It will empower consumers, raise customers' awareness of their energy and water use and allow them to make informed decisions on heating, lighting and appliance upgrades. Ultimately this will lead to a significant change in consumer behaviour towards sustainable consumption patterns.

This Guide has been written to inform the debate about Smart Metering and to show how its full potential can be realised for the benefit of consumers, society as a whole and the environment.

Recently ESMIG has been recognised as an Official Partner of the Sustainable Energy Europe Campaign: www.sustenergy.org

The Guide is available as electronic or printed version and can be downloaded here.
