The concept of carbon tax is to raise prices to make renewables more competitive. So any new 'smart meter' will not have an aim to reduce coal power costs. Just another Govt con job. Sushi's post of comparative costs makes one realise just what our govts have been doing to make our cost of living one of the highest in the world, and that is not to the benefit of those on fixed incomes, and out of the work force. Your older days will see a decline in standards. This is not what we work all our life for.
This is a world wide campaign, where all of a sudden, the whole world has energy supply problems. Very strange synchronisation, unless it has been planned.
