THE TRUE COST OF SMART METERS
In a trial of smart meters in Australia, users found that their bills increased sharply because meters allow suppliers to charge a higher unit rate at peak times when households most need the energy. Only a few items, such as dishwashers, can be timed for night use, when rates are lower.

The declared cost of the UK smart meter program was £11 billion a couple of years ago, which works out at about £450 per household. The only way this can be paid for is by adding the price to customer bills.

It should also be noted that electricity use, as shown by the smart meter data, reveals when you are not in the house. This obviously has implications for house insurance and security.....


    Hi!

    I'm a special app that lets me talk to Smart Meters.

    I can tell when you're home or when you're out.

    I'm for sale on the Dark Internet for just $300. You'll recoup the sales price on your first break-in.
