Smart meters and switching: do you need to do anything?

Switching when you have a smart meter

If you have a smart meter, you might wonder whether it needs reconfiguring when you switch. Luckily, that’s usually not necessary.

What happens during the switch

• Your meter stays the same; only your supplier changes.
• The grid operator makes your consumption data available to Leafy Energy.
• You don’t need to physically replace or reset the meter.

What you do need to do

• In the Leafy Energy app, confirm that you agree to smart meter readings.
• During the first weeks, verify that charts and readings look plausible.

Without a smart meter you can still be a customer, but some features (such as hour-by-hour optimisation) will be limited.
