Abstract
The present document provides a methodological framework for conducting a cost-benefit analysis of smart meter deployment. The assessment framework is structured into a set of guidelines to tailor assumptions to local conditions, to identify and monetize benefits and costs, and to perform sensitivity analysis of most critical variables. It also provides guidance in the identification of externalities and social impacts that can result from the implementation of smart metering deployment but that cannot be easily monetized and factored into the cost benefit computation. This document is mainly intended to support Member States in fulfilling the provisions of the 3rd Energy Package on CBA of smart metering deployment.
