Global Smart Electrical Meters Market Overview

Smart Electrical Meters Market was valued at US$ 13.4 billion in 2024 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 8.6% to reach US$ 28.4 billion by 2034.

Smart electric meters are advanced devices that measure and record electricity consumption in near real-time. Unlike traditional meters that require a manual reading by a meter reader, intelligent meters transmit data wirelessly to the utility company. This allows for more accurate billing and gives consumers more information about their energy use.

Smart meters' significant benefits include more accurate billing and tracking of energy usage in real-time. Smart meters eliminate the possibility of estimated bills, which can be inaccurate, while allowing consumers to track their energy use in real-time, which can help them identify areas where they can conserve energy.Smart meters can be used to implement time-based rates, which charge consumers different rates for electricity depending on the time of day. This can encourage consumers to shift their energy use to off-peak hours.Smart electrical meters market has allowed utility companies to identify and respond to power outages more quickly while providing utilities with valuable data about energy use patterns, which can help them improve the efficiency of the electricity grid.

Many governments worldwide are implementing policies and regulations that encourage or mandate the deployment of smart meters, leading to significant growth in the smart electrical meter market. This is driven by a number of factors, including the need to improve energy efficiency, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and modernize aging electricity grids.Approximately 119 million advanced (smart) metering infrastructure (AMI) installations, or almost 72% of all electric meter installations, were reported by U.S. electric utilities in 2022. This number is only expected to increase in the near future. Hence, the Smart Electrical Meters Market clearly shows an upward growth trajectory for the future.
