Smart meter stocks refer to shares of companies involved in the manufacturing, development, and deployment of smart metering technologies. Smart meters are digital devices used for measuring and recording energy consumption (electricity, water, gas, etc.) and transmitting the data to utility companies for real-time monitoring and billing.
As the global demand for energy efficiency, grid modernization, and sustainability grows, companies in the smart meter sector are seeing increased investments. These stocks often appeal to investors looking to capitalize on the growing trend of smart cities, renewable energy integration, and IoT (Internet of Things) solutions in utility management.
