Gas meters are instruments used to measure and record the consumption of gas in residential or industrial settings. Typically installed on gas pipelines, they monitor the usage of gas for billing purposes or energy consumption management. Therefore, the gas meter industry plays a crucial role as a key component in the field of energy management, holding significant importance in the market.
In recent years, the country has introduced relevant policies aimed at elevating the quality standards of gas meters, ensuring safety, and guiding the traditional mechanical gas meter industry towards intelligent and IoT (Internet of Things) development.
China, as one of the major producers and exporters of gas meters globally, has witnessed a continuous expansion in the market size of gas meters with the growth of the global economy and increasing energy demand. According to customs data, the overall export of Chinese gas meters has maintained a stable upward trend, experiencing a slight decline in the past two years since 2022. As of November 2023, the total export value of Chinese gas meters in 2023 was $74,930,567, marking a 3.88% decrease compared to the same period, with an export quantity of 8,135,936 units, reflecting a 13.22% decline. The cumulative export value from 2018 to the present has reached $501,591,072, with a total export volume of 52,386,721 units.
China's export of gas meters is highly dynamic, with products being shipped to various parts of the world. The main export markets for Chinese gas meters include Asia, Europe, Africa, and the Americas, with major destinations being Indonesia, Russia, the United Kingdom, Peru, Brazil, Algeria, India, Italy, Singapore, and Australia. Chinese gas meter manufacturers typically supply their products to gas companies, energy companies, construction projects, as well as industrial and commercial users in other countries and regions.
China's gas meter manufacturing industry has made significant progress in technological innovation, digitization, and intelligence. An increasing number of gas meter manufacturers are now engaged in the research and production of smart gas meters. These meters come equipped with features such as remote monitoring, automatic meter reading, and data analysis, contributing to the enhancement of energy management efficiency.
With the adjustment of the energy structure, China's natural gas energy development and application have entered a period of rapid growth, and the urban gasification rate is gradually increasing. Simultaneously, driven by the development of a low-carbon economy, energy structure adjustments, and government policies, the total volume of natural gas supply in China shows a year-on-year upward trend. As a crucial component of gas systems, the market demand for gas meters is closely linked to the total volume of natural gas supply. In the future, as the coal-to-gas conversion process in the heating sector continues to deepen, coupled with the stringent requirements under the 'dual carbon' goals, China's natural gas consumption is expected to further rise, laying a solid foundation for the development of the gas meter industry.
