Case study: Smart meters: making a positive difference to our climate

3. Reflective Questions

If you’re considering community based energy tools or a smart meter for your household - or have a smart meter already installed - you may want to consider:

  • If you don't currently have a smart meter installed: What are your main concerns or challenges regarding smart meter installation? How could these concerns be addressed? Where could you go for support or more information?
  • If you have a smart meter: What information does your smart meter provide? How could you use this information to better understand your energy use? Have you used this information to make changes to how and when you use energy? If so, what was the result? If not, what actions could you take? 
  • If you are looking at examples of community based energy tools: Do any of the examples in this case study resonate with your community aims? Where could you go for more information and/or support?
