Households see when and on what they use electricity, and get tips that fit their daily lives instead of general advice. So far this mainly runs in pilot projects: smart metering systems are not yet installed on a wide scale, and identifying individual appliances from 15-minute readings is unreliable.

Is this for you?

  • As a supplier, you want to test early whether consumption analyses strengthen customer loyalty, and you are looking for pilot households or pilot partners.
  • Smart metering systems are already installed in your area, and you can get 15-minute readings with the customers’ consent.
  • Your customer service often gets questions like “Why is my bill so high?”.
First step today

Use the template below to research how far consumption analyses based on smart meter data have come in Germany today. Then clarify internally how many of your customers already have a smart metering system and how you would get their readings. You will then know whether a pilot makes sense now.

How to go about it

  1. Define the pilot question and stop criteria
  2. Recruit pilot households and clean up the readings
  3. Have consumption profiles created
  4. Check profiles against meter readings and household information
  5. Design a clear consumption letter with a few tips
  6. Evaluate the same way every month and decide on expansion
