Some numbers...
Number of devices active within a network = 4000
Number of devices able to be connected within an area = unlimited
Max power draw = < 15 mA (suitable for coin cell battery)
Signal topology = Star
Real topology = Star Bus
Data rate (physical) = 1 Mb/sData rate (application) = ~200 kb/s
Range (raw) = ~50 meters
Range (LNA/PA) = ~500 meters

Summary
Bluetooth low energy can meet requirements for Metering
Robust / Low Power / Star-Bus
Industry support is extensive
Test / Silicon Vendors / Software / System Integration
Security issues need to be addressed
Cant rely on security of physical channel
Bluetooth does vertical solutions - can help you solve this
