Meter Rooms
Alt HAN devices provide a solution to a problem that could exclude over 700,000 customers from the benefits of smart metering. These range extending devices need space next to the meter to be installed and in some buildings, there is not enough space for the devices to fit in.
The Alt HAN Co Crowded Meter Room (CMR) service has been set up to address the challenges of installing smart meters in buildings where there is not enough space, particularly in apartment blocks where many meters are often clustered together in meter rooms, with the cost of works fully funded by the Energy Suppliers.
Alt HAN Co, working together with all Energy Suppliers, Distribution Network Operators (DNOs), Building Operators (BNOs) and Landlords, is now delivering a coordinated service to make these buildings “smart ready”. The CMR service was successfully piloted in 2023 and went live in 2024; it is estimated that up to 5,000 buildings could benefit from the coordinated work to resolve Crowded Meter Rooms.
