Company Overview

Trust Power Limited is a UK company based in Oxford, England^[1]. Founded in April 2016^[2], Trust Power is understood to be developing a new data-centric technology to provide energy customers with detailed usage data to support energy usage decision making and encourage behaviour change.

The company's stated ambition is to save UK households money on their total energy bills by increasing their control of energy.

By assisting customers in reducing their energy usage the company expects to facilitate the reduction of carbon emissions and as a result help to mitigate the negative effects of climate change.

Climate change and energy efficiency

The Committee on Climate Change, in its 2018 Progress Report to Parliament^[3], stated that the UK is not on course to meet the legally binding fourth and fifth carbon budgets. Similarly, energy efficiency is a vital pillar of the UK's future energy system and is key to reducing the countries carbon emissions and enabling savings for bill payers.

Smart Meters are an essential step forward in supporting energy efficiency and reducing consumer costs. However, with the current speed of deployment the Government is at significant risk of missing its self-imposed deadline of 2020. In a report by the National Audit office titled "Rolling out smart meters" a key finding indicated that the number of smart meters installed in thew UK will fall materially short of the Department for Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy (BEIS) original ambitions of all UK consumers having a smart meter installed by 2020^[4].
