"Too cheap to meter" refers to a situation when a unit of something is so cheap that it makes more sense to provide it for free or for a flat fee than to charge by the unit. This is e.g. the case with broadband internet in large parts of the world.
Will electricity be provided to most private households worldwide free of charge or for a lump fee by 2050?
