The gas meter market has seen considerable growth due to a variety of factors.
• The market size for gas meters has experienced robust growth lately. Projected to escalate from $5.06 billion in 2024 to $5.42 billion in 2025, it has a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.0%.
The surge in growth during the historical phase can be attributed to factors such as a robust economic upturn in emerging markets, heightened industrialization, growing safety considerations, and the aging infrastructure of gas distribution networks.
The gas meter market is expected to maintain its strong growth trajectory in upcoming years.
• In the coming years, the gas meter market is projected to experience robust expansion, reaching a value of $7.25 billion in 2029 with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.6%.
This anticipated surge during the forecast period can be credited to factors such as fast-paced urbanization, increased government backing, and uptick in natural gas usage. Highlighted trends during this forecast period will comprise the incorporation of IoT for enhanced data analytics and predictive maintenance, the advent of new and innovative meters for gas distribution, the deployment of prepayment gas meters aiding consumers in managing their budgets more proficiently, and an emphasis on partnerships and collaborations to produce intelligent metering solutions.
The expansion of quick industrialization is anticipated to boost the gas meter market's growth in the future. This process of industrialization, which involves the transformation of a region or nation's economy towards mechanized manufacturing, has a profound influence on energy demand. The consumption of oil and natural gas is seeing a swift increase as a result of this. Quick urbanization and industrialization, bolstered by government initiatives endorsing these developments, especially in emerging regions, promise to benefit the local and international gas meter markets. For example, a report by the United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO), an Austria-based UN agency dedicated to aiding countries in their economic and industrial development, articulated in March 2023 that global manufacturing production had seen a 3-4% year-on-year rise in the last quarter of 2022. Consequently, the acceleration of industrialization is set to propel the growth of the gas meter market.
