Middle East is a big market for smart metering, especially Saudi Arabia, which is also the largest smart grid market among MENA countries, with an imminent tender for the supply of advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) of 20 million smart meters to be deployed by 2027. However, Middle East countries are also encountering some issues, such as high non-technical losses due to energy theft, the inability of utilities to stabilize energy supply and demand, as well as poor consumer energy efficiency have prevailed in the region. Linyang developed a series of cost-effective smart meters customized for its special environment of high temperature and dry weather in Middle East region and also for solving its common issues.
Linyang has provided more than 2 million single phase smart meters with RS485 local communication module and more than 500,000 three phase cost-effective smart meters in certain areas of Middle East Region in the past three years. Meanwhile, with our strong quality control and excellent aftersales service, we successfully provided Saudi Arabia with more than 900,000 three phase multiple-functional smart meters, which accounts for majority of Saudi Arabia market share. It is estimated that Linyang is to meet the local market needs of Saudi Arabia with around 2 million three phase multiple functional smart meters in 2020 and a total more than 3 million single phase and three phase smart meters for the whole Middle East Region.
