How businesses can save money with help of a Smart Meter

If the last couple of years has taught us anything, it’s that businesses need to expect the unexpected. A period of massive political and economic change has meant trading has been extremely difficult, in particular for small- and medium-sized firms, who will have seen their cash flow significantly hit.

Here at the Cornwall Chamber of Commerce, we are proud to be the home of over 600 members who are all in it to help others succeed. So in times of uncertainty, and certainty for that matter, we are huge advocates of the local business community coming together to help those in need pull through. 

Energy savings that could help your business

Recent times have been anything but straightforward for businesses and many are looking for ways to take control of their finances. The good news is that getting a smart meter for your business is a small change that could make a big difference.

A smart meter allows businesses to wave goodbye to estimated billing by securely and automatically sending meter readings to your energy supplier. That means that you receive accurate bills, rather than estimated bills, allowing you the certainty of paying for exactly what you are using.

An added advantage is you can also wave goodbye to time spent submitting regular meter readings, allowing you to focus on bigger things. 

A way to make your business greener

As Glasgow hosts COP26 this year it’s a good reminder of everyone’s responsibility to become more conscious of their environmental impact. Regardless of whether your business has three employees, or three thousand, we all should be aware of how much energy we’re using, and a smart meter is a step in the right direction. From the moment your smart meter is installed, you’re helping create a smart energy system which could ultimately help reduce all our carbon emissions.
