Cecile Chamaret on the resistence to the Linky electricity meter, interview by Sarah Elzas on RFI English
Posted on 9 August 2019

A French court has allowed 13 people to refuse the installation of Linky, a connected electric meter being installed in homes across France, because of medical concerns over the waves emitted from them. The meter has been the subject of scepticism since it was first introduced in 2015 and there is growing resistance to their mandatory installation.

Thousands of people across France have been refusing the mandatory installation of the Linky meters, which Enedis, which manages France’s electrical grid, has been installing free of charge since 2015
