Consumers want a good deal
• Will pay for data that has value TO THEM.• But don’t want to pay just because [fill in the blank]
tells them it is a good thing.• And don’t want to pay just because a regulator says
they must.• Goods and services must prove themselves in markets.• Societal values must be held widely to be imposed by
government.

Reasons for skepticism….• Remote disconnection
– 30 years of consumer advocacy – cancelled
• DR estimates are just that– Averages mask extreme impacts?– Extrapolations based on black box– What is DR worth in market?– How long will it last?
• No proof of consumption response (& enviro benefits)– Pilot results mixed at best– Metastudies so far not relevant– (even ACEEE does not endorse AMI)
• Utilities/vendors won’t put money where mouth is• AMI undermines privacy and security

Что делать?• Stop talking to just to each other, and talk with us
• Listen to consumer advocates/LI/Elder advocates• Work to solve the problems, not dismiss them• Don’t overhype the product(s)
• Stop pretending you have support you do not have• Astroturf claims just make us mad and erode your cred…
• Put your money where your mouth is.• Get pioneering applications right
• Texas, Delmarva areas, PG&E SmartRateTM
• HAN enabled appliances
• Get security and privacy right from the outset• Try a different model – true entrepreneurship?
