The Global Metering and Smart Grid Market - Report and Database
Electricity metering continues to evolve and develop not only as a standalone industry in the retail energy sector, but more so as an integrated part of the entire network of Transmission and Distribution systems. From metering taking place at the generator, to the household energy meter, technology is getting smarter and allowing for more than just simple measurement of electricity throughput.
T&D Networks, together with metering, are continuously evolving in both size and nature as they grow to cope with ever-rising demand. In the past, growth was a matter of adding more lines, transformers, and ancillary equipment. Today, the technology of the systems is often able to allow for increased sophistication to substitute physical growth. Metering and communications technology play an ever-growing role in the adaptation and development of these new technologies.
This report and database provide a focused look at metering and smart-grid systems technology within the Electricity Transmission and Distribution industry as smart grid systems become ubiquitous.
