Analytics and data management solution is estimated to have the largest market share during the forecast period

Meter data analytics solution unlocks smart meter data from both Automatic Meter Reading (AMR) and Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) sources, turning them into actionable information for gas utilities. It enables the company staff to track performance and analyze trends using the information from the core gas utility applications. It helps improve customer service quality and cut costs by using Interactive Voice Response (IVR) systems, steering customers to self-service websites and varying billing cycles, so that call volumes are relatively levelled l throughout the month. It also reduces gas loss, resulting from pipe leaks and breaks by analyzing sensor data in near real-time to detect unusual flow rates and automatically notify dispatchers & field technicians about likely emergencies.

Asia-Pacific (APAC) is expected to grow at the fastest rate in the market during the forecast period

As per the geographic analysis, the APAC region would witness the fastest growth in the smart gas market over the forecast period, due to the increasing adoption of smart grid architecture, technology upgrades, energy management, regulatory mandates, and affluent countries, such as China, Australia, South Korea, Japan, Singapore, & Hong Kong, which are the major contributing factors for the growth of smart gas solutions in this region. The increasing smart meter rollouts for residential customers in countries, such as China, Japan, Australia, and South Korea have bolstered the growth of smart gas metering in the region. In countries, such as Philippines, Indonesia, Thailand, and India, the political push & privatization are the major drivers for the growth of Internet of Things (IoT) adoption. Ambitious rollout plans in India have stagnated due to a number of factors, including legislative obstacles & bottlenecks, economic downturns, lack of customer engagement, and network infrastructure-related issues.
