Smart Meter Behaviour Trial

• CER project to ascertain the potential for smart
  metering enabled energy efficiency initiatives
• Focus on ensuring statistically robust results
  that will inform cost benefit analysis

• July 09-Dec 09 Smart Meters Installed
• Dec 09/ Jan 10 IHD Delivered
• Jan to Dec 10 A year of Stimuli
