Frost Radar™ on the Global Smart Water Metering Market

Water utilities across the globe are exploring new solutions to adapt to climate change, this has driven decision makers to implement water conservation policies which specifies the need to reduce leaks and holistically reduce Non-Revenue Water (NRW). Smart water meters are the tool of choice for water utilities to reduce leaks and NRWas it ensures billing accuracy and assists in monitoring consumption pattern. In addition, smart water metering system that includes a meter data management & analytics platform enables efficient customer service management, workflow management and resource management. Water utilities are transitioning from conventional metering to smart metering by leveraging IoT connectivity enables by LPWAN technologies such as LoRa, Wize, NB IoT, LTE-M, MiOTY etc.

The Smart water meter market is expected grow from $ 5.2 billion in 2023 to $7.3 billion in 2026. NA and Europe are the key hotspots for smart water metering whilst India, Brazil, SEA countries (Malaysia, Indonesia, Vietnam, and Philippines) and Australia are the key emerging hotspots. China is the single largest market for smart water meters in APAC but is mostly served by a large number of local/regional players.

Smart water metering systems solution providers are leveraging IoT Connectivity and data analytics platforms to expand their solutions portfolio to offer customer end to end NRW and water network management systems through collaboration and strategic partnerships.
