Abstract
This chapter marks a shift in focus by embarking on an analysis of the first of four strategies central to achieving the aims of the Smart Utopia. In this chapter and those that follow I aim to understand how the smart ontology on which these strategies are founded is being performed by householders through their everyday practices. Further, I seek to understand what other realities are being performed as householders integrate smart energy technologies into their everyday lives. The first of the strategies discussed here is the provision of energy feedback, which is primarily intended to save energy consumption in the home.
