By technology, the automated meter reading (AMR) segment is expected to hold a larger share of the smart gas meter market during the forecast period.
Automated meter reading (AMR) is expected to be the standout feature in the smart gas meter market in the coming years. This growth is fueled by the rising demand for affordable smart gas meters, which can automatically collect readings and eliminate the need for manual checks. The Asia Pacific region is likely to command the maximum share of the market, followed closely by Europe. The growth is mainly due to the extensive rollout of smart gas meters in these geographies' residential, commercial, and industrial areas. This resonates with your interest in smart energy technology and grid modernization as a way to improve efficiency and save costs.By component, the hardware segment is expected to be the largest segment during the forecast period.
The hardware segment is the largest in the global smart gas meter market, accounting for more than 50% of total revenue in 2024 and continuing to dominate through the forecast period. This leadership is driven by the rising demand for advanced metering infrastructure that delivers precise measurement and real-time data capabilities. Hardware devices, such as smart meters, sensors, and communication devices, are the foundation of smart gas metering solutions, which facilitate precise consumption measurement and automatic data collection. Constant innovation in hardware technology has enhanced performance and longevity, aligning with smart gas meters becoming increasingly appealing to utility companies and end-users and driving the market's healthy growth.By region, Asia Pacific is anticipated to be the fastest-growing market for smart gas meters during the forecast period.
The smart gas meter market with the quickest rate of growth is Asia Pacific, with Europe coming in second. China, Japan, Malaysia, Australia, Indonesia, Singapore, and the Rest of Asia Pacific are the countries that make up this region. The region's biggest and fastest-growing market is China. Currently, China is at the forefront of new investments in smart grid technologies. Due to the significant changes occurring in the nation's energy sector, China has emerged as the primary user of smart grid technology. Smart grid technologies will become increasingly necessary as a result of the nation's ambitious renewable energy program. China's emphasis on adopting energy efficiency is another factor supporting the need for the smart grid industry, which in turn is driving up demand for smart gas meters.In-depth interviews have been conducted with various key industry participants, subject-matter experts, C-level executives of key market players, and industry consultants, among other experts, to obtain and verify critical qualitative and quantitative information and assess future market prospects.
