Incentives make it easier to care as there is a payoff of some form for doing so. Compulsion eliminates choice and has an attached penalty for not complying. It doesn't make it easier to care, it eliminates the choice entirely. They're nothing alike.

A bit late to respond to this one, but the post stated that smart metering should be compulsory. Whether you choose to pay any attention to it or not is entirely up to you.
