[194 Pages Report] The Smart Water Metering Market size was estimated at USD 8.63 billion in 2023 and expected to reach USD 9.61 billion in 2024, at a CAGR 12.86% to reach USD 20.14 billion by 2030.

Smart water metering refers to the integrated system of advanced metering infrastructure that encompasses water meters equipped with electronic components. These components enable the automatic collection, processing, and wireless transmission of water usage data to a central database. This technology allows utility companies and consumers to track water consumption in real-time or near real-time, facilitating efficient water management, leak detection, and accurate billing. Smart water metering aims to promote water conservation, enhance operational efficiencies, and improve customer service by providing detailed and timely water usage analytics, contributing to effective water management and billing. The smart water metering market is growing rapidly with factors such as the escalating issues of water scarcity, governmental regulations promoting smart meters, breakthroughs in wireless technology, and demand from utilities for improved billing systems and customer engagement. Investments in smart city projects are also bolstering the adoption of state-of-the-art water metering technologies, thus expanding the market growth. However, challenges, including high initial investments, data privacy concerns, and user resistance against new utility technologies, hinder the scope of smart water metering solutions. Opportunities in this space arise from harnessing AI and IoT for smarter predictive analysis techniques and eco-friendly practices that bolster demand for systems capable of detailed usage reporting while minimizing waste. Innovations in creating cost-effective products, enhancements in data security, battery longevity, connectivity, and compatibility with existing smart grids present lucrative future opportunities for the smart water metering market expansion.
