Smart Meter Adoption by State

Smart Meter Adoption At-A-Glance0-25% 26-50% 51-75% 76-100%

With the growing importance of energy and sustainability management in commercial and industrial buildings, the infiltration of smart meters continues to rise, replacing the existing analog meters. Our infographic shows the geographic penetration of smart meters and their analog meter counterparts in commercial and industrial buildings in the United States, by state.

So...What Do Smart Meters Mean for Commercial and Industrial Companies? The deployment of smart meters has enabled:

• More accurate and detailed billing. Smart meters enable automatic meter readings, which are more accurate and detailed than analog meter readings.

• New offerings and services. Continuous commissioning, consumption forecasting, and demand response programs have all benefited from smart meter deployment by the utility.

• Service improvements. Utilities can better monitor and manage loads across the service network where AMI systems and distribution systems are integrated.

Out of the 16 million commercial and

industrial building meters in the United

States… … approximately 5.8 million are smart meters.

Which States Are Leading the Pack?Smart meter penetration varies widely by state, and is largely driven by each state’s policies. California leads the pack in the absolute number of smart meters, but nearly all meters in commercial and industrial buildings in the state of Maine are smart meters, yielding a 97% rate of adoption.
