Here, th question smart metering's chances of long-term success. As \cite{pierce01} pointed out smart metering developments could benefit greatly from early involvement of HCI research. -HCI research certainly would not have overlooked entire central issues such as privacy as it happened in the dutch -case\cite{cuijpers01}. The current corporate-driven approach to a technological advance forced through national -standardization bears a risk of failing to meet its ostensible objectives for consumers. The role of consumers and the -complex socio-technological environment posed by this new technology is not seriously considered in the standardization -process. While certainly no one will admit to outright ignoring consumers in smart meter standardization, their role is -largely limited to the occasional public consultation.
