The US smart electric meter market is expected to grow at a CAGR of around 9.6% during the forecasted period. The major factors augmenting the market are government initiatives and deployment of smart power grids in the region. The US market for smart electricity meters grow due to demand from a broad range of commercial and personal home users. According to the Edison Foundation, the US had installed 65 million smart meters in 2015, and the number of installations rised to 70 million in 2016, making up to more than half of all households in the country. The largest driver of the growth of smart electricity meter infrastructure has been The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA), which includes funding for the Smart Grid Investment Grant (SGIG) program. More than 50% of the $8 billion in the SGIG was designated for advanced metering infrastructure. The country’s five large smart meter manufacturers namely, Elster, Landis+Gyr, SensusGE Energy and Itron, received at least $30 million each in ARRA funds or matching funds. The funding encouraged utilities and municipalities to start implementing smart metering infrastructure in their communities.
