Is a New Commercial Energy Connection Necessary?
Relocating to a new venue that formerly housed different types of businesses may necessitate a novel commercial gas and electricity meter tailored to your specific consumption patterns.
Occasionally, you may encounter outdated smart meters from previous occupants that aren't compatible with your chosen energy supplier, suggesting a need for an upgrade.
Conducting an energy audit is a strategic move to pinpoint wasteful energy use, thus optimizing your operational costs and contributing to your company’s Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) goals by minimizing environmental impact.
Ensuring consistent meter readings is crucial; otherwise, your provider might estimate usage, potentially leading to higher charges. Proactively installing a new meter can avert this issue.
In scenarios lacking an existing supply line, it's prudent to schedule your new meter installation well in advance—ideally a month prior to needing the connection. Meter installation can span a couple of weeks, while establishing a fresh line could extend to three months if starting from scratch.

Deciding on the Appropriate Energy Meter
The selection of an energy meter is a personalized decision, as no single type fits all. The optimal choice for your new premises will be influenced by your business size and operational hours.
Your energy provider, chosen through DaffodilsGo, will recommend a meter type from the following, tailored to your energy consumption patterns:
Standard Meters
Ideal for businesses with consistent energy use, standard single-rate meters offer a uniform charge for gas or electricity.
They suit businesses with peak energy usage during normal operating hours, though they do require manual meter readings, which can be less convenient than automated options.
Economy 7 Meter: Your Flexible Rate Solution
An Economy 7 meter, known for its differential pricing structure, is tailored to businesses that can adapt their energy consumption to various times of the day. It’s a favorable option for those who can capitalize on the lower rates available during a specific seven-hour off-peak period each day.
Commonly selected by businesses, the Economy 7 meter provides a distinct day rate alongside more cost-effective evening and weekend rates, in addition to a night rate. For companies with substantial energy use during non-peak hours, this type of meter can lead to considerable savings.
Such multi-rate meters are particularly beneficial for operations that can shift high energy consumption to periods when lower rates apply.
Smart Energy Metering
Smart energy meters provide precise measurements of your gas and electricity usage, ensuring you're billed only for the energy you consume. These advanced meters automatically transmit your usage data to your provider, eliminating the guesswork of estimated bills.
Ideal for smaller enterprises not requiring half-hourly meters, smart meters offer the advantage of automated readings. This helps businesses monitor their energy expenditure more effectively and can aid in controlling operational costs.
When conducting an energy review for your business, a smart meter's timely and accurate data is invaluable. It allows for a clear view of your energy patterns, assisting in identifying usage trends and peak consumption times.
Installation of commercial smart meters is typically offered at no additional charge, as many energy suppliers absorb the setup costs.
Precision Metering with Half-Hourly Energy Meters
Half-hourly meters are mandatory for businesses with an annual electricity usage exceeding 100,000 kWh. If your consumption is over 70,000 kWh but less than 100,000 kWh, opting for a half-hourly meter is still within reach.
These meters ensure the utmost accuracy in billing, delivering automated readings to your energy provider every 30 minutes. This frequent data collection offers businesses detailed insights into their energy use, empowering them to fine-tune their consumption and achieve greater efficiency.

Business Energy Meter FAQs
What Information Do I Need to Arrange a Business Meter Install?
To set up a business meter installation with DaffodilsGo, you’ll need your business’s current energy consumption details, the address where the installation will occur, and your business’s contact information. It’s also helpful to have your current energy contract on hand to review any existing terms.
What Does MPAN & MPRN Mean?
MPAN stands for Meter Point Administration Number, which is unique to your electricity supply. MPRN is the Meter Point Reference Number for your gas supply. These numbers are essential for identifying your energy supply points and are needed when switching energy providers or setting up new meters.
Do I Need a Meter Operator (MOp) & Data Collector (DC)?
Yes, for business energy meters, a Meter Operator (MOp) is responsible for installing, maintaining, and ensuring the meter works correctly. A Data Collector (DC) gathers the consumption data from your meter. DaffodilsGo can help coordinate with these parties as part of the installation process.
What if My Business Has Multiple Sites?
If your business operates across multiple sites, DaffodilsGo can help manage the installation of meters at each location. We can assist in organizing a multi-site meter installation plan that ensures consistency and efficiency across your operations, often finding solutions that cater to the specific needs of each site.
