Re: Smart meters

I still feel that the ulterior motive is to allow companies to charge different tariffs at different times of the day or week.

Higher rates during peak demand periods, lower at night and the weekends.

The meters will show that you are on a different tariff so pushing users to change their usage characteristics. A but like the old Economy 7 system, but without separate sockets.
