Water Metering’s Digital Shift: Platforms, Analytics, and AI Integration
In this episode of The Future of Water, host Reese Tisdale is joined by Bluefield Analyst Christine Ow to explore one of the fastest-evolving segments in the water sector: metering.
Christine shares insights from Bluefield's new report, Global Water Metering Outlook: Evolving Technology Trends, Business Models, Competitive Landscape, and Leading Companies, which offers a detailed view of the US$6.8 billion global metering market. With digital transformation accelerating, water meters are no longer just endpoints—they’re becoming the digital backbone of utility networks.
The discussion highlights how business models are shifting toward subscription-based offerings, how telecom players are entering the space, and how leading vendors are leveraging analytics and AI to create new value for utilities and customers alike.
Key topics covered:
The shift from traditional meter replacement cycles to subscription-based models
The entry of telecom players supporting smart meter rollouts, especially in Europe
How vendors are integrating analytics and artificial intelligence to deliver more than just water measurement
Market-specific trends, including policy shifts in the U.S., AMP8 in the U.K., and funding in Spain
Why static and ultrasonic meters are gaining traction in mature markets as costs decline
