South African Electricity Metering to go Smart: Frost & Sullivan Explores the Implications
The electricity metering market in
“The implementation of smart meter systems within the country is being largely driven by demand response and demand-side management initiatives and supporting government legislation, brought about by the national energy crisis,” notes Frost & Sullivan energy analyst Ross Bruton. “The rollout has significant implications for both electricity distributors and equipment suppliers, as smart meters and ancillary systems are much more expensive than conventional prepaid and credit meters.”
To offer decision makers a clear perspective on the market for electricity meters in South Africa, Frost & Sullivan will be hosting an online analyst briefing on Tuesday 16 March 2010 at 2:00pm GMT/ 4:00pm CAT. The discussion will benefit original equipment manufacturers, product suppliers and distributors, major electricity distributors, and new entrants to the market.
The briefing will provide a market overview of the complete electricity meter market within the country segmented by product type (credit meters, prepaid meters and smart meters) and end-user (residential sector, commercial sector and industrial sector). The drivers and restraints of each product type will be identified together with the major challenges facing the market as a whole.
