The Smart Water Meters market has strengthened the global initiatives and growing measures that reduce the NRW for efficient resource utilization, that eventually drives this market. Besides, stringent government regulations that effectively monitor the distribution network along with a precise assessment of resource allocation boosts the market growth. The development of infrastructure that provides proactive services and sleeks the supply management also stimulates the industry outlook. Furthermore, ongoing technological advancement for the development of effective and precise metering technologies will drive the market, while fewer concerns pertaining to the scarcity and increasing of wastage of water will further restrain the industry landscape.
The increasing awareness about the smart management techniques along with rising investments for level production installation of meters is anticipated to fuel growth in the Asia Pacific region. Additionally, increasing government regulations to control the wastage, along with environmental protection initiatives, is also driving the demand in countries such as Japan and China. India, Japan, China and Singapore account for a dominant market share in the region owing to applications in end-use industries, rising foreign investments, and technological advancements. The market is likely to gain momentum in the Middle East & African region due to high demand for these products. Growing demand for smart meters can also be attributed to the rising need for combating scarcity problems and monitoring the quality.
Further key findings from the report suggest
- The major companies in this market are focusing more on agreements and partnerships to acquire market share. For instance, in June 2019, Itron received a contract from Liberty Utilities Company for OpenWay Riva, an IoT solution that includes an open, standard-based network for electricity, gas and water. The resultant solution helped Liberty Utilities improve operations and enhance the customer experience. In another instance, in May 2019, Diehl and one of its local partner Faso General Technology, accepted a contract from the National Water and Sanitation Office in Burkina Faso to improve the management with advanced manual data consumption reading.
- The crucial need is for optimized consumption in areas where there is scarcity is driving the deployment of smart water meters. For example, according to a report by the World Water Development, approximately 480 million people in Asia are expected to face scarcity in the near future.
- Moreover, around 500 million people live in areas where the consumption exceeds locally renewable resources by a factor of two (2). Due to these concerns, there is an increasing necessity to monitor its usage, which is anticipated to result in increasing the adoption of smart meters subsequently.
- The lack of availability of capital funding is a major challenge that is hindering the adoption of smart meters in residential and commercial sectors. The operating costs associated with this are also high. Therefore, many water utilities are not flush with cash and spend much of their budgets on making network repairs just to maintain the status quo.
- Key participants include Badger Meter, Kamstrup, Diehl, Landis+Gyr, Aclara Technologies, Sensus, Itron, Datamatic, B Meters, and Elster Group, among others. The key players in the market are highly involved in developing strategies to acquire the industrial share. For instance, in April 2019, Badger Meter acquired Innovative Metering Solutions. This acquisition is expected to increase the footprint of Badger Meter and its utility customers in the southeastern U.S.
