Is it true that only wealthy people will benefit from smart meters?
The Victorian Government has pledged it will introduce new initiatives to ensure vulnerable Victorians can access the full benefits smart meters will provide. This will include campaigns that deliver simple, clear and helpful advice to assist all Victorian consumers to change their behaviour in order to maximise the benefits of smart meters. The Government’s intention is that the smart meter program will help reduce electricity bills for the community in the long term and also help reduce greenhouse emissions.
