European Smart Metering Market Report 2017 - Pure-Play PLC Smart Meter Shipments in Europe will Peak in 2017

DUBLIN, October 24, 2017 /PRNewswire/ --

The "Smart Metering in Europe - 13th Edition" report has been added to Research and Markets' offering.

Annual shipments of smart electricity meters in Europe will grow by 71 percent in 2017 to reach 23.1 million units, according to a new research report. Growth is driven by accelerating deployments in France, Italy and the UK that coincide with the final phase of the nationwide rollout in Spain. The great majority of the devices deployed in 2017 use powerline communication (PLC). Already in 2018, shipments of PLC smart meters are however expected to start to decline, even as the market remains strong. Instead radio-based technologies like 4G cellular (LTE-M/NB-IoT) and RF mesh will increase their market shares.
