Stop Smart Meters NZ contribution to Tasmania’s draft energy strategy

by | 6 Apr, 2015 | Government and Electricity Industry Positions, Latest News

In February 2015, I wrote a document on behalf of www.stopsmartmeters.org.nz in response to a request for public feedback on the Tasmanian government’s draft energy strategy.

The document summarises the problems that the roll out of smart meters has caused to New Zealanders and urges the State government of Tasmania (Australia) to eschew the use of smart meters.

The link to the document (in PDF format) is here:

Stop Smart Meters Australia also contributed a thoughtful piece which focuses on the economic issues with smart meter deployments as well as health and privacy issues.  It may be read at this link:
