Require energy companies to offer analogue meters

Closed 650 signatures

What the petition asks

We want the Government to require energy companies to offer analogue meters for those who cannot have or do not want smart meters.
Smart meters emit electro magnetic frequency radiation (EMFR), there have been reports about meters linked to fires, inaccurate data and we are concerned about cyber security. Some people report being too sensitive to EMFR to live with smart meters and others simply do not want them. It is not a legal requirement to have a smart meter but we feel energy companies don't offer a choice when replacing meters.
