First Utility started rolling out energy-efficient smart gas and power meters across Britain on Wednesday

First Utility started rolling out energy-efficient smart gas and power
meters across Britain on Wednesday, becoming the first UK energy provider to
do so, the independent utility company
said.

"Households across the UK can now take advantage of the benefits that smart
meters bring -- from increased visibility of their energy usage through to
accurate bills," Chief Executive Mark Daeche said.

Smart meters -- which supply real-time energy usage data to the energy
provider and customers -- are seen as the first step in developing a smart
power grid to help balance the installation of intermittent renewable
electricity generation.
