CHECK YOUR ELECTRICITY METER FOR SAVINGS |
 |
Larger organisations using half-hourly electricity meters could be
wasting thousands of pounds on their meter rental charges, says Chamber
Utilities.
Previously, customers had to use their local meter operator because
there was no other choice, but since the market was relaxed, they have
been able to shop around for a new supplier - typically saving 50% per
year.
