hi everyone, I wonder if anyone give give me some advice please. We live in Scotland & have recently had a PV Solar installation, we have an old style, wheel type meter for our billing, & it was recommended that we keep it if possible. All paperwork has been accepted by FIRST UTILITY, then we had this email a couple of days ago,
"Your electric meter is one that is known to the industry to not conform with the export of energy created by solar panels. We have arranged for our metering department to contact you to arrange for an engineer to come and change your electric meter for one which is compatible to the export of electricity which you generate from your solar panels. There is no cost incurred to this."
Is it compulsory to have a new "smart" meter, or do we have the right to insist that we keep the existing one?
thank you for reading my tale of woe. DeeMGee
