Electricity Metering Report Edition 3 2017: Several Big Countries Go Large on Prepayment Metering - Research and Markets


The "Electricity Metering Report Edition 3 2017 " report has been added to Research and Markets' offering.

The global meter market is driven by large deployments of smart meters, huge and almost complete for the first round in China, quickening in Europe, starting in the rest of Asia but slowing down in the United States. Japan and Korea are at the forefront of the Smart Grid and the Smart City.

Several big countries go large on prepayment metering. Prepayment meters (PPM (News - Alert)) provide a solution to the chronic problems of low income budgeting and energy theft in the developing world; the Indian sub-content, sub-Saharan Africa and South America. In some African countries only 50% of electricity generated is paid for; half is not even billed to the distribution companies and another half is stolen by the consumers. Advanced PPMs are delivering with smart metering.

There is still a large demand for basic meters in the many countries which are not yet going smart. This report cvers all segments of the meter market; residential basic and smart, prepayment, AMR & AMI, C&I and Grid.



The reason for a decline in the global market for meters in 2021 is that several of the largest deployments of smart meters are scheduled for completion in 2020 and currently it looks as if this will be achieved, notably in France and Spain. The largest rollout in the world, in China, is nearing completion and the replacement cycle is starting.

Global demand for meters has followed a cyclical pattern for the last one hundred years determined by economic and demographic growth. This is being turned on its head in some countries with fast national smart deployments. The pattern will change totally but we can still project the future demand cycle, with the same methodology and different inputs.
