The global smart meter market size was valued at $21.79 billion in 2020 and is projected to reach $54.34 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 10.10% from 2021 to 2030.

Smart meters are electronic devices that accurately monitor electricity, gas, and water usage. These smart meters can send usage information through power line communication, radiofrequency electromagnetic radiation (RF), and cellular communication, helping the utility company to effectively manage the energy usage. Smart meters offer a host of benefits such as reduction of meter reading cost, preventing disconnection, removing inefficiencies in billing, and re-connection costs to corporations and consumers. 

Furthermore, surging investment interest in digitalization of electrical systems, and efforts to expand grid infrastructures are expected to create growth opportunities for smart electricity meter market. Increase in electricity demand from commercial and residential sectors also provide opportunities for the market growth. For instance, Reliance Industries has been focusing on the smart electricity meter market after signing multi-billion dollar deals for Jio Platforms and Reliance Retails.

COVID-19 Scenario Analysis

The smart meter market size has been significantly impacted by the COVID-19 outbreak. At the start of the outbreak, the main impact faced by many smart meter manufacturers was supply problems, owing to halted production. Due to lockdown measures, non-essential businesses, and the demand for the residential, commercial and industrial use of the smart meters have been decreased. 

Consequently, the manufacturing and supply of smart meter is returning to normal levels. Several manufacturers have started witnessing recovery in sales. Although the COVID-19 pandemic has forced the field work of several major smart metering projects to pause temporarily, the market is nonetheless expected to remain robust with the cumulative number of smart meter shipments being largely unaffected over a three-year period.

Analyst Review

Smart meters are the electronic devices that records and analyses consumption of electrical energy and sends back the information to the respective electricity supplier for billing and the regulation. The smart meter automatically detects any theft or tampering in the electricity and alerts the company about it. The data gathered through the smart electricity meter permits the energy distributers and the utility companies to enhance the power distribution losses across the grid. 

The major factor that drives the smart meter market is supportive government policies and financial incentives. In addition, large scale installations of the smart meters by the utility companies are focusing on strengthening the distribution of smart meters. However, high cost of installations of the smart meters borne by end users restrain the growth of the smart meter market. Various grid operators and other gas utility and water utility providers are effectively managing the demand for smart meters. However, various benefits offered by the smart meter market such as automatic meter reading and bill generation are further expected to contribute toward the growth of the smart meter market.
