A friend of mine asked the local electricity company to install a "white
meter",
Economy 7 type thing to power his night storage heaters.

The company said that it is not their policy to install such meters
anymore,
and that it is all done by computer.......!! This answer intrigued me,
any
idea what the chap was talking about?

They remotely monitor the new meters,

How?...

so they know when you use the off peak
stuff. I would hang on to the old meter as long as possible (if you have
one), at least you know exactly where you are.
