Report Description


The global smart water metering market size was USD 3.8 Bn in 2022 and is anticipated to reach USD 6.8 Bn by 2031, expanding at a CAGR of 12% during 2023–2031. Increasing need for water billing solutions is likely to boost the market.

Smart water metering refers to the use of advanced technology to measure and monitor water usage in real time. It involves the installation of electronic water meters that can automatically collect and transmit water usage data to a central system for analysis and billing purposes.

Global Smart Water Metering Market Outlook

Smart water metering provides several benefits over traditional water metering methods including, accurate billing, leak detection, conservation, and operational efficiency. Smart water metering helps utilities to manage their water resources, improve customer service, and support sustainable water use practices.

The market report finds that the COVID-19 pandemic has slightly impacted the smart water metering market. Governments and several players initiated the deployment of advanced smart metering solutions. Additionally, in December 2020, E.ON is the first energy supplier to install 20,000 intelligent metering systems in Germany. This system is installed at Wasserverband Weddel-Lehre (WWL) in the grid area of E.ON subsidiary Avacon.

Smart Water Metering Market Dynamics

Major Drivers:

Growing demand for reducing non-revenue water is expected to drive the market. Water utility companies have strict operational budgets, which are insufficient for upfront capital investments. According to the International Water Association, non-revenue water accounts for about 50% of the water supply. In emerging markets up to 75% of non-revenue water.

Restraints:

The lack of government initiatives is expected to restrain the market. Governments are focusing on smart grids, where the water meters are being ignored as compared with electricity and gas meters. High cost of smart water meters and the lack of operational infrastructure in developed and developing countries are likely to hamper the market.

Opportunities:

Increasing need for digitization of water industry operations is expected to create lucrative opportunities for the market players.

Smart Water Metering Market Segment Insights

Based on meter type, the market is divided into mechanical meter, ultrasonic meter, and electromagnetic meter. The ultrasonic meter segment is expected to expand at a significant pace during the projection period, due to the high accuracy rates and internet of things (IoT) sensors. Ultrasonic meters measure the velocity of a fluid flowing through a pipe in two ways such as transit time and doppler technology.

Global Smart Water Metering Market Meter Type

On the basis of application, the smart water metering market is segmented into water utilities, industries, commercial, and residential. The water utilities segment is projected to register a considerable CAGR during the forecast period, due to the increasing demand for reducing water loss. According to the California State Water Resources Control Board, there was an 11% increase in water savings by 2017.

Global Smart Water Metering Market Application

In terms of component, the market is segregated into communications, IT solutions, and meter & accessories. The IT solutions in smart water management help in preventing the wastage of water by finding issues and leaks in metering. Through IT solutions, consumers can reduce labor costs, moreover eradicate the requirements for utility agents to take readings manually.

Based on technology, the smart water metering market is divided into automatic meter reading (AMR) and advanced metering infrastructure (AMI). The advanced metering infrastructure segment is anticipated to expand at a significant pace during the forecast period. AMI is a technology that allows two-way communication between a water meter and a utility company. It is an integrated system of equipment, communications, and information management system for utilities to collect water usage data in real time. However, AMI involves less human effort for functioning, which helps in the reduction of labor costs.

In terms of region, the global smart water metering market is classified as Asia Pacific, North America, Latin America, Europe, and Middle East & Africa. North America is expected to dominate the market during the projection period, owing to the acceptance of cooperative water meters. Emerging countries such as the US is dominating the market, owing to the strict regulatory norms and increasing government initiatives for smart meters.

The market in Asia Pacific is anticipated to expand at a rapid pace in the coming years, due to the increasing government initiatives for the conservation of water. The Government of Japan is estimated to deploy 100% smart water meters by 2025. High demand for smart water meters is increasing, due to the growing agriculture sector in the country.
