Gas Meter Market size is estimated to reach USD 13.1 Billion by the end of 2036, growing at a CAGR of 6.19% during the forecast period, i.e., 2024-2036. In the year 2023, the industry size of gas meter was about USD 6 Billion. The growth of the market can be attributed to the several advancements in the technology of gas meters. In the last few years, the gas meter has undergone several innovations in the technology, this includes the integration of the Internet of Things (IoT) in the meters to make it even smarter. Several manufacturers in the market are investing heavily in the research and development of new innovative gas metering equipment. For instance, Nicor Gas and Sensus, a Xylem brand has installed the two-way Sensus FlexNet communication network and SmartPoint and with this, they commence their journey of urbanization.
In addition to these, factors that are believed to fuel the growth of gas meter market include the rising need to reduce gas leak accidents and helps avert huge gas accidents. The need to avoid accidents and make the gas chambers a safe place to work and live around is increasing the demand for gas meters. Modern gas meters are built to detect any form of gas seeping from the piping. They accurately gauge consumption, pinpoint excess usage that may indicate leakage, and warn the supplier of unusual consumption trends. Petrol meters have a number of sensors that monitor changes in pressure, temperature, and flow rate. These sensors assess the amount of petrol consumed and compare it to the projected rate of consumption. A leak could be indicated by unusually high usage. The meter will then transmit an alert to the supplier, who will be able to further investigate.

Type (Traditional Gas Meter, Smart Gas Meter)
The smart gas meter segment in the gas meter market is estimated to cross USD 7.4 billion in the year 2036 by growing at a CAGR of 6.39% over the forecast period. Moreover, the revenue generation in 2022 was USD 3.3 Billion. The growth of the segment can be attributed to the rising use of smear meters by industries. industries are employing it efficiently carrying out the distribution and transmission of energy while reducing the cost and minimizing the energy consumption. Smart meters provide fantastic insights into how much energy is being used at any one time and how to reduce its usage. With narrow confidence intervals, smart meters save an average of 3.4% of power consumption and 3.0% of petrol used. Both estimations have a statistically significant level of significance.
End User (Residential, Commercial, Industrial)
Gas meter market from the residential segment is projected to expand at a CAGR of 6.59% during the forecast time frame and to garner a significant revenue of USD 7.6 billion in the year 2036. In 2022, the segment garnered a revenue of USD 3.3 billion. Growing consumption of gas from the residential sector is expected to boost the segment growth in the market. According to the Energy Information Administration, in 2015, around 58% of households used natural gas, in 2021, around 42% of households used natural gas. In addition to this, the rising need for reducing bill expenses is also expected to boost the growth of the segment. A smart meter saves a typical home 2% on their annual energy expenditures or 354kWh. That may not seem like much, but it's sufficient power to take 115 hot baths or listen to your favorite song on a tablet for the next 35 years.
