India Smart Meter Market By Product Type (Smart Energy Meters, Smart Water Meters, Smart Gas Meters), By Application (Industrial, Commercial, Residential), By Technology Channel (Automatic Meter Reading, Advanced Metering Infrastructure), By Region, Competition Forecast & Opportunities 2019 -2029

The India Smart Meter Market is expected to register a robust CAGR during the forecast period due to government spending and awareness regarding saving of energy.

An intelligent power meter helps users get enough power and save costs from power consumption. It enables energy companies to eliminate monthly manual meter readings, reduce power costs, provide real-time data to avoid outages, and instantly monitor systems. Additionally, providing simple user controls and tracking power consumption provides significant benefits to consumers. Increased consumer awareness of the product's benefits can lead to increased demand. The need to build a domestic smart meter manufacturing base and eliminate monopoly to ensure a sufficient supply of sufficient meters for installation across the country is also expected to act as a major driver. Smart meters require two-way communication networks, control center equipment, and software applications to collect and transmit energy consumption information in near real time. They help reduce overall transmission and commercial losses. They transmit radio frequency electromagnetic (RF) emissions usage information that helps utilities manage energy usage effectively. Its architecture is designed to make it easier for consumers to choose their electricity provider on the one hand, and to help distribution companies deal with power theft on the other. Favorable government policies and tax incentives are key factors driving the India smart meter market.

Government projects increasing the demand for smart meters
India's state-owned Energy Efficiency Services Limited (EESL) completed the installation of approximately 10 lakh smart meters across India during the year 2020 as part of the Government of India's Smart Meter National Program. EESL has set a goal to install 25 million smart meters in the next few years.

Growing consumer interest in Internet of Things (IoT)-based surveillance networks and increasing power demand in India. Growing awareness of energy efficiency and rapid expansion and modernization of grid infrastructure will drive the market for smart electricity meters. For example, EESL has signed an agreement with South Bihar Power Distribution Company Ltd. and North Bihar Power Distribution Company Ltd as part of the Smart Meter National Program for installation of 2.34 million smart prepaid meters in Bihar.

Increasing consumer awareness regarding energy consumption and savings is expected to provide growth opportunities for the Indian smart meter market during the forecast period. Smart meters automatically send real-time meter readings to suppliers and owners so they can assess energy consumption and manage it appropriately and efficiently. These devices help raise awareness of energy consumption and motivate consumers to use energy efficient electrical devices.
