<p>Energy suppliers are now installing second generation smart (SMETS2) meters, which
are connected to the national smart metering communications network run by the Data
Communications Company (DCC) from the point of installation, so are already compatible
between suppliers.</p><p> </p><p>First generation smart (SMETS1) meters are being
moved onto the DCC’s network so that consumers regain and keep smart services if they
switch supplier. Meters are being enrolled remotely, without consumers needing to
take any action. Priority is being given to those which have temporarily lost smart
functionality.</p>
