Brisbane Smart Meters

As Brisbane continues to evolve into a future-focused city, commercial and industrial sectors are embracing smart metering to improve energy efficiency, visibility and performance. The Government Smart Meter Rollout 2025 is underway, mandating the upgrade of traditional electricity meters to intelligent digital models across all major facilities and sites.


Macquarie Electric is at the forefront of this shift—partnering with infrastructure operators, commercial landlords and utility managers to ensure seamless, regulation-ready installations. We understand the power demands of manufacturing plants, data centres, transport hubs and multi-tenant buildings—and design smart metering solutions to match. With local technicians and national expertise, our team makes the transition simple, safe and scalable.

What Is the Government Smart Meter Rollout 2025?

The Government Smart Meter Rollout 2025 is a national initiative requiring all traditional electricity meters to be replaced with digital, remotely-read smart meters by the end of 2025. The program applies to all sectors, including commercial and industrial operations, and is designed to modernise Australia's electricity network while improving accuracy, data transparency and grid efficiency. Smart meters capture detailed usage data and eliminate the need for manual reads, helping energy providers and users respond to demand in real time.


In Brisbane, businesses that delay upgrading risk falling behind regulatory requirements or facing disruptions when modifying their energy supply. Unlike basic residential upgrades, commercial sites often require tailored implementation due to load size, infrastructure or integration needs. Macquarie Electric helps navigate these complexities with full system assessments, installation services and compliance support—ensuring your operation is rollout-ready ahead of schedule.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Is the smart meter rollout mandatory for commercial sites in Brisbane?

    Yes, all commercial and industrial properties across Queensland must upgrade to smart meters under the national 2025 mandate. Unlike residential upgrades, many commercial sites require custom installation plans due to their size or system complexity. Non-compliance could lead to billing issues, limited access to flexible pricing or delays when changing supply. It's best to plan the upgrade early and avoid rushed, last-minute rollouts.

  • How do smart meters benefit large-scale operations?

    Smart meters allow businesses to track electricity use with precision across machinery, systems and time-of-day patterns. This supports energy optimisation, early detection of equipment faults and load balancing during peak hours. Facilities can integrate metering data with automation systems to improve forecasting and reduce consumption. It’s an essential step toward more efficient, scalable energy management.
