Residential Smart Water Meters
Advanced Meter Technology for Newly Constructed and Retrofitted Homes: Global Market Analysis and Forecasts, 2024-2033
The market for residential smart water meters is expected to experience global growth during this report’s 2024-2033 forecast period, which will directly benefit utilities, customers, and smart meter manufacturers. The technology has increasingly appealed to water utilities looking to reduce costs and manage water usage as the demand for water conservation rises. AI-powered platforms are reshaping how meter technology is quickly and effectively processing data collection for billing, while identifying potential issues.
A rising demand in water conservation is driving the market for smart water meters as shifting climate patterns result in water scarcity and severe droughts in arid regions. While barriers to smart water meters remain—including privacy and security issues and high initial investment costs—urbanization and emerging automatic meter reading (AMR) and advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) solutions will drive the market over the next decade. Industry players wanting to increase adoption must implement strong security measures while investing in high end communication networks. Guidehouse Insights expects the global smart water meter market to grow from more than $3.0 billion in 2024 to more than $5.0 billion in 2033.
