The Gas Meter market rose to 80.8 million meters in 2023 with a value of $5.5 billion and is predicted to reach 116 million meters by 2028.

The new edition of Gas Meters Smart & Standard Ed5 2024 has identified three significant factors driving demand.

Smart gas metering is taking off, after lagging behind electricity smart metering. Large deployments of smart gas meters are identified in Europe, Asia Pacific and Central Asia.

Ultrasonic meters have long been used for bulk and custody metering but their entry into the residential market has been hampered by price. Costs have now come down and they are poised to challenge the traditional dominance of residential diaphragm meters. Large deployments have been contracted in the Netherlands, in the USA and Canada, in Japan and potentially in the UK, with China simmering. The leading international manufacturers have developed G1.6-16 ultrasonic meters and regulators are accrediting them around the globe.

Despite net zero targets, opposition from green activists and an explosion of wind power and solar PV, fossil fuels are still the mainstay of global energy. Natural gas is well positioned as a transitional fuel because of lower emissions than coal and oil. City gas distribution is on ambitious growth paths in some of the largest markets.

Market statistics and analysis

  • Sales of gas meters for 42 countries, by meter type - basic residential, AMR/AMI, prepayment, communal, communications modules, C&I - units, value, and average selling price, from 2022 to 2028.
  • New deployments of smart gas meters, together with suppliers.
  • The status of residential ultrasonic metering in relevant markets, deployments and manufacturers.
  • The gas metering landscape in 2023 - numbers of population, households, gas consumers, and demand in meters and $ value.
  • The major meter technologies described with total market shares; are the diaphragm, rotary, turbine, orifice and ultrasonic, Coriolis, vortex and MEMS.
  • The major customers for gas meters, the gas transmission and distribution utilities in each of the 42 countries profiled, together with their structure.
  • The growth of housing units, gas and electricity customers charted for each profiled country, from 1950 to 2030.
  • Global market shares with profiles of the top 23 meter manufacturers - Profiles of Elster, Itron, Landis+Gyr, Sensus, Dresser, Diehl, Apator, Panasonic, Nicor Gas, Sagemcom, Sensus, Dongfa Group, Holley, Qianwei Kromschroeder, Emerson.
  • The smart meter rollouts are causing fundamental changes in the demand cycle for meters.
  • The NGV and autogas segment is reviewed, a small but growing segment for gas meters, with numbers and metering technology.
  • Gas supply infrastructure outlined, which meters are required for each function.

Methodology

The publisher has a set of historical databases, first created in 1998 and regularly updated, among them the populations of energy consumers and meters in the domestic and C&I sectors for electricity, gas and water. Based on forecasts of energy consumption these have been projected to future targets. Demand is calculated based on new installations plus replacements. Replacements are based on historical installations less refurbishments.

These calculations are reviewed after extensive internet searches, examination of national statistics, company and utility reports, meter production and trade data are correlated and reconciled by interviews with meter manufacturers.

Executive Summary

Chapter Summaries:

Chapter 1 - THE GAS METERING LANDSCAPE IN 2020

Globally, 34% of gas is consumed by the residential/commercial sector, 39% by industry and 29% by power plants. Analysis of gas customers in 71 countries, their number, consumption of meters in units and value. 

Chapter 2 - WORLD DEMAND FOR GAS METERS FROM 2019 TO 2025

Global demand analysed by meter type. Meter technology shares. 

Chapter 3 - DEMAND FOR SMART GAS METERS

Global demand for smart gas meters and communications modules by country. 

Chapter 4 - LONG-TERM DEMAND TREND FOR GAS METERS

Globally, 34% of gas is consumed by the residential/commercial sector, 39% by industry and 29% by power plants. Until the last decade demand followed regular trends established over a century. It had its local fluctuations but the overall trend for each country was regular. The sudden rollouts of smart meters will have dramatic impacts on demand trends and will change them beyond recognition. The changes in the demand cycle are identified where applicable for each country. 

Chapter 5 - GAS DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM 

The transmission and distribution of gas involve huge investment and the gas is regulated, compressed and metered at pressures from 1,500 psi in long distance transmission to under 3 psi in domestic households. The meters at the high pressure end are few in number but well-engineered and costly. The system is mapped and the different stages identified. 

Chapter 6 - METER TYPES FROM 1843 TO THE FUTURE

Overview of the development of metering from the earliest days and each technology. 

Chapter 7 - THE GAS METER MARKET IN EUROPE

Chapters 7 to 14 contain regional and country sections, with market reviews with "A summary of the gas supply industry, distribution and consumers" Gas meters sales in the base year 2019 with forecasts from 2020 to 2025 in numbers of units, $ sales and average selling price per meter - for Residential, AMR, AMI, PPM, Commercial and Industrial, and Smart Meters ¨ Status and commentary on Ultrasonic Meters and Smart Metering ¨ Gas meter vendors Expanded market commentary for the United States, Japan, China and India. 

Chapter 8 - THE GAS METER MARKET IN CIS

Chapter 15 - COMPETITIVE ANALYSIS, COMPANY PROFILES AND MARKET SHARES

The three historical global metering groups, Elster, Itron and Landis+Gyr are still the market leaders in the gas meter market, with 61% of the global market in value. Their large share in the value of the market is due to their dominance of the high end C&I sector, providing metering solutions for the high pressure grid and large industry. ¨ Global market shares are accompanied with profiles of the meter manufacturers, including those with small shares in numbers of meters but leading positions in high end meters for high pressure measurement - Elster, Itron, Landis+Gyr, Dresser, Diehl, Apator, Sagemcom, Sensus, Dongfa Group, Holley, Emerson. 

Chapter 16 - NGV and AUTOGAS METERING

The metering of gas dispensed to CNG and Autogas powered vehicles is a small segment of the metering market. Each filling station has two kinds of a gas meter; a master meter which measures the gas arriving at the station, and individual meters on the pumps measuring the gas supplied to vehicles. The technology is outlined and the main meter products listed. 

Chapter 17 - THE ORIGINS OF THE GLOBAL GAS INDUSTRY

An overview of the gas industry, from its start with local manufactured coal gas plants to its conversion and huge expansion with transmission pipelines into an international industry. Its competitive role versus electricity. 

Chapter 18 - GAS SOURCES, TYPES AND DELIVERY

A review of gas. Gas comes in many forms, is made from various feedstocks and is delivered in different ways. Most gas comes from three hydrocarbons; natural gas, liquid petroleum gas and coal. There are four major categories of gas.
