As the European Union accelerates its path toward achieving energy efficiency targets by 2035, smart metering systems are becoming a key element of sustainable resource management across Europe.
This transition is largely driven by regulatory initiatives, including the EU Energy Efficiency Directive, as well as broader programs such as Directive (EU) 2019/944. These measures promote the deployment of digital infrastructure that enables transparent, efficient, and data-driven resource consumption.
This transformation is clearly reflected in market dynamics. The European smart water metering market was valued at USD 2.2 billion in 2025 and is expected to grow to USD 2.9 billion in 2026, reaching USD 20.3 billion by 2035, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 23.9%.
One of the key growth drivers is the need to reduce Non-Revenue Water (NRW). More than 20% of treated water is lost annually in Europe, leading to significant financial losses. Smart water meters, equipped with real-time monitoring and leak detection capabilities, can reduce NRW by up to 30%.
Against this backdrop, ADD GRUP contributes to the digital transformation of the industry by offering advanced metering solutions. A key element of the portfolio is the ADDRA ultrasonic smart water meter, delivering high-precision measurement and continuous monitoring.
ADDRA supports MultiRAT technology, including NB-IoT, Wireless M-Bus, LoRaWAN, and Mioty, ensuring maximum flexibility and compatibility with modern remote monitoring systems. Its Intelligent Power Source architecture enhances reliability and adaptability even in challenging conditions by combining internal and external power modules.
With a low starting flow rate from 1 liter per hour, ADDRA can detect minimal consumption and hidden leaks, significantly improving measurement accuracy and system efficiency.
By combining real-time data, alert systems, and IoT integration, such solutions help utilities optimize operations, reduce losses, and improve consumption transparency. This directly contributes to achieving EU energy efficiency and sustainability goals.
As 2035 approaches, smart meters are evolving from simple measurement tools into strategic elements of digital infrastructure that support a sustainable future for Europe.
