[184 Pages Report] The Smart Meter Market size was estimated at USD 17.38 billion in 2023 and expected to reach USD 18.59 billion in 2024, at a CAGR 7.30% to reach USD 28.47 billion by 2030.

Smart meters are advanced metering devices that accurately record the consumption of electric, gas, or water supplies in real-time or at specified intervals. Unlike traditional meters, they enable two-way communication between the meter and the central system operated by the utility provider. This technology offers consumers and utilities several benefits, including detailed consumption data, enhanced service reliability, and the capability for consumers to make more informed decisions about their usage to potentially reduce their energy bills. Initiatives aimed at reducing carbon footprint and energy conservation promote the adoption of smart meters, and growing awareness among consumers and enterprises about the importance of energy management and cost savings create the need for smart meters. The expansion of smart homes and smart cities across the world has further fuelled the demand for smart meters. However, issues such as battery life, communication range, and interference can affect meter performance. Additionally, the risk of privacy breaches and loss of data, such as consumers' names, addresses, and energy consumption patterns, further raises concerns about the safety and reliability of smart meters. However, key players are focusing on enhancing data security, improving device interoperability, and reducing costs. Research into self-powered meters, enhanced communication protocols, and consumer engagement strategies can also propel market growth. Furthermore, developing solutions that integrate smart meters with home automation and energy management systems offers a pathway to deeper market penetration and value-added services. Integration of advanced technologies such as AI/ML and advanced data analytics strategies is also gaining traction.
