I was the OP who predicted this in 2023. At the time I was roundly criticized.

The truth comes at you in small pieces. At first Seco denied this, now a year later the masses are starting to see this come to fruition. It is bitter sweet to be vindicated.

Seco is changing because their rates are set by peak hour usage. They aren't time of day billing yet, but they don't have the capability to. Once they do, by installing the new meters, I expect now as I thought in 2023, to be on time of day billing.

Ask yourself this, if this is not the plan why install new meters at all? Sure this eliminates the need for meter readers but smart meters can do so much more. Why not use time of day billing; the capability will be easily turned on.
