The implementation of smart metering in Australia is currently the focus of considerable attention. The Federal Government’s recent Energy White Paper promotes smart metering as a way to provide information about electricity usage and curb peak-time demand to reduce bills. Frontier (Australia) assesses the proposal in a client briefing and finds that the benefits of the required investment in Australia may not be justified by the costs.
For more information, or to request a copy of the client briefing, please contact Marita O’Keeffe at m.okeeffe@frontier-economics.com.au or call on +61 (0)3 9620 4488.
