Before the British government decided to make smart meter rollout mandatory in 2016, energy suppliers had already installed some 2.3 million smart electricity and smart gas meters across residential buildings in Great Britain. By 2022, this figure reached nearly 26.5 million units. That same year, the number of non-domestic smart and advanced meters installed stood at some 1.7 million units.
