I had this scenario too. I purchased PowerTag by a Schneider Electric and then tied this into Home Assistant via Node-red. This gave me usage on individual circuits and automation resulted in a 40% reduction in energy usage.
For curiosity I wired in an SDM eBay brand meter and it was within 1% of the Industrial grade PowerTag.
Another option is emonpi and it’s easier to install than both of the above.
Happy metering!
(Oh and you’re lucky, Power in Australia is $0.28/kWh
