Smart Electric Meter Market Report and Forecast 2023-2028

According to the report by the publisher, the global smart electric meter market attained a value of USD 6,202.6 million in 2022. Aided by the rising consumption of power across commercial and residential sectors and growth of smart grids, the market is projected to further grow at a CAGR of 1.6% between 2023 and 2028 to reach a value of USD 6,878.5 million by 2028.

Smart electric meters record electrical energy consumption and share the information with electricity suppliers for the purpose of billing and monitoring on a daily or monthly basis, as per the requirements. The key advantage of using smart electric meters is that they eliminate the risk of errors that might occur during manual recording of readings. They also provide data on consumption of electricity in order to reduce electric bills and augment information about the electricity grid status, this in turn aids in providing improved services to the customers. Smart electric meters are incorporated with a power limiting circuit breaker, this improves their response along with their capacity to act.

Increasing adoption of energy efficient technologies are expected to drive the growth of the global smart electric meter market in the upcoming years. Rising investments towards replacement of traditional systems with Internet of Things-based metering technologies is also expected to aid the growth of the global market for smart electric meters.

Another crucial factor driving the growth of the market for smart electric meters includes increasing subsidies and incentives provided by various governments around the world to boost the integration of grid infrastructure with smart electric systems. Growing initiatives to solve energy problems and to protect consumers from theft, fraud, and losses associated with manual collection of electric data are further boosting the smart electric meter market growth.

Increasing advancements in microgrid networks and expansion of distributed generation technology are crucial trends positively influencing the global expansion of the market for smart electric meters. Rising consumption of power across residential establishments such as multistorey buildings and apartments coupled with the expansion of the commercial sector is driving the growth of the smart electric meter market. These drivers and trends along with rising utilisation of energy efficient services and products are expected to propel the growth of the market for smart electric meters over the forecast period.
