Energy: Meters
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, if she will make an estimate of the number of households that are not on the smart meter network in each constituency in Scotland.
Answered by Miatta Fahnbulleh
The Department does not collect data on Wide Area Network (WAN) availability at constituency level.
The DCC is obligated under the conditions of its licence to provide Wide Area Network (WAN) coverage to at least 99.5% of premises in the ‘North’ region, which includes Scotland, and to assess opportunities to increase the overall level of coverage.
