Global Electricity Meter Report 2015 - Trends, Technologies & Opportunities 2nd Edition - Key Vendors: El Sewedy, Electrometer, Iskra

Dublin, March 08, 2016 -- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/3lxdfd/electricity_meter) has announced the addition of the "Electricity Meter Report 2015 2nd Edition" report to their offering.

Electricity meter sales will top 173 million meters globally in 2015. After four years flatlining the race is on and sales will accelerate in 2016. Global sales excluding China will increase 22% from 2015 to 2020.

The United States market has slowed down following the end of the fiscal stimulus. The long awaited smart meter expansion is beginning in Europe and the Middle East. South America will follow with smart meters and prepayment meters. In 2015 smart meters amounted for 35.4% of low voltage (LV) meter sales, and this will rise to 45.7% in 2020. The market for smart meters is taking off but some planned schedules may be overly ambitious , while other deployments will be completed before 2020.

A new and escalating trend is prepayment metering (PPM), an old technology with a new twist. In 2015 PPM sales were 11.2% of LV meter sales outside China. This will rise to 14.9% in 2020, an increase of one third in five years.

Energy theft is the one of the main reasons for deploying smart meters. Smart meters with prepaid- and post-paid functionality are available. How will PPMs mesh with smart meters, competition or enhancement?
