Global Smart Electric Meters Market Outlook to 2028


Drivers:

Increasing demand for secure meter systems due to tamper & fraud issues.

Growing support from governments in the form of tariffs and subsidies, policies, regulations, Mandates, and targets.

Adoption and investment by countries for smart grid technology.

Demand for insights and transparency into consumers’ power consumption to help reduce energy bills.

Reduced operational expenses for utilities.

Increasing adoption of smart meters due to their Benefits.

Utilities growing need to provide a top-class customer experience.

Definition and Benefits:

Smart metering comprises an electronic power meter with full remote control, diagnostics, power peak, and consumption analysis, anti-tampering mechanisms, fault alarm, time-variable tariffs, and a variety of other features. All of the above functionalities are possible and compatible with future smart-grid protocols when using power-line communication (PLC) or other wired and wireless technologies to connect the meter to the service provider.

Benefits:

Allows to manage consumer’s electricity consumption better during peak hours and save money.

Reduces the amount of electricity utilities need to produce at maximum cost during peak hours.

Limits the new capital investments for the utility to handle higher peak-hour demand.

Smart electric meters provide near-real-time data on electricity consumption.

Smart meters will eliminate predicted billing, allowing consumers to better budget by only being charged for the resource actually used.

Smart meters will enable switching suppliers easier and faster in the future, making it easy to find the best pricing.

Eliminates supplying meter readings by sending automated readings directly to the energy supplier, saving business time for other tasks.

Smart meters can be set up to run in either a prepayment or credit mode.

Restraints:

Global economy slowdown due to Covid-19 and natural calamities.

Growing concerns of privacy for customers

Lack of government support in some countries.

Declining revenues of utilities impacting utility operating models and capital expenditure.
