One option in the Electricity Demand Reduction consultation on options to encourage permanent reductions in electricity use was to include Electricity Demand Reduction in the Capacity Market; the capacity market powers in part 2 of the Energy Bill already allow for this by allowing "reducing demand for electricity" to be treated as a form of capacity. Following the close of the Electricity Demand Reduction consultation on 31 January, the responses are being analysed and a decision on the way forward will be taken shortly.

There is no specific policy objective for a national roll-out of home automation systems. However, the Smart Meter Programme will help support home automation systems by facilitating the uptake of a range of devices including smart appliances and advanced heating controls, while we are exploring how other Government delivery programmes including Green Deal could provide further support.
To ask the Secretary of State for Energy and Climate Change what his policy is on the functionality of smart metering to support demand-side management measures for the purposes of introducing flexibility into the electricity system to support the development of a UK smart grid.

Smart meters are a critical part of the platform for the development of a smart grid and demand-side management measures. The technical specification for smart metering equipment includes the requirement to include multiple registers within the
meters in order to support a range of time-of-use or dynamic tariffs—which support demand-side management measures. In addition, as part of the procurement processes for the provision of data and communications services, we are exploring the cost of different levels of functionality and capacity for both smart metering and smart grids requirements.
