The electricity is not free (it would be paid under a low consumption unmetered arrangement, similar to things like public BBQs or traffic lights).

Telstra is contracted to provide payphone service under the Telstra USO Performance Agreement with the Federal Government, at a cost of $44 million.

Today I learned there are public BBQs in Australia.

There are in the US too, but you have to bring your own fuel (coal/charcoal).

Note that "BBQ" in Australian usually means a flat grill, not what I am told it means in American.
