Why would the Government wish to have so called 'independent' companies install such meters?

Ah, could it be, it makes them look greener?

I do actually plan to have them fitted, I've seen them working, they do seem to make folk more responsible and careful about the power used in their houses.

So long as a couple of years down the road, the same Government doesn't force up the prices because we are being too careful with our power consumption.
