However, the project will investigate how consumers approach tariff comparisons and switching, through the testing of a new approach to tariff comparisons and conducting action research with a group of consumers. The Government is committed to the roll-out of smart gas and electricity meters to domestic and smaller non-domestic customers in Great Britain. This project is focused on domestic energy users. Where microbusinesses operate from home (that is, premises use is mixed domestic/non-domestic) and the approach to tariff selection does not differ from domestic customers.
