A dedicated data institution should be set up to manage and distribute information derived from smart meters, according to the government-funded Energy Systems Catapult and the Data Communications Company. The two organisations claim that a dedicated entity should be set up to oversee the “governance of, access to and use of smart meter data for public good”. They claim this will “help to resolve the complex interaction between smart meter regulations and data legislation obligations”.
