• If you provide your consent, the project lead organisation will share your name, address and information about your smart meter(s) with UCL.
  • With your consent, UCL will use this information to remotely collect data on your energy use from your smart meter (see further FAQs for how UCL does this). UCL will not need to visit your address and your energy bills will not be affected by this in any way.
  • UCL will continue to collect your smart meter data for the duration of the trial, or until you withdraw from the trial (see FAQ on withdrawing from the project) or you move home. UCL will link your smart meter data with data from the Energy Performance Certificate for your property, if available. Energy Performance Certificate data can provide valuable information about your building and heating system to help better understand your energy use data.
  • UCL will provide secure access to your smart meter and Energy Performance Certificate data only to the Ipsos MORI team and only for the purposes of this specific project.
