Does anyone know which electricity suppliers can fit export meters please? I've got new solar panels and need to export to the grid without a smart meter, so an export meter is needed. Many thanks!

I was going to say the same as paul991.Any electrician should be able to install an export meter between your consumer unit and your import meter, although it will be easier if you already have an isolation switch (without one they'll either need to pull the DNO fuse or work live).You might well find that you need a MCS certificate for the meter installation before you can get paid, in which using an MCS installer (possibly the same one as fitted your panels, if that was recent) makes sense.You did get a MCS cert with your panels?N.
