SMART CITY PROJECT ENTERS STAGE TWO

A trial of the costs and benefits of what they’re calling ‘smart energy’ has entered its second phase.
After a rollout of ‘smart metres’, Energy Australia has released a series of new electricity packages designed to give homes and businesses rewards for using less electricity.
SMS alerts of usage, and turning off and on products remotely, just part of ‘the future’.
“We’d like people to think about taking this up if they’re interested using energy in a different way, if they’re interested in saving money on their energy.”
