Opting out of Smart Meter Program

Zamboni · 2022-09-28 13:13:58

I have a small solar array and Zappi/Eddi for surplus and would not really economically benefit from FIT in comparions to maintaining my day/night meter. Are there specific steps/notifications that I have to do to officially opt out of the smart meter program? Are there set templates with set scripts to display on the box…

OP here
I opted out of the smart metre program and maintain an old day/night metre.
And the good news is that I have been paid the fully backdated micro generation credit from Electric Ireland and continue to get paid each bill.
...for the moment....
If that helps anyone make a decision...

If on a day night you don't have to opt out currently, as they aren't being replaced yet.
Because you have DN you get the deemed.
If they can swap your DN for a SM would you let that happen? (But still stay on the DN plan)
