Smart utilities have been a prime area for IoT, including applications such as smart metering and the installation of sensor technologies in power grid infrastructure. The recent acceleration in deployments and adoption of cellular-based IoT, notably NB-IoT, is making smart utilities an even more attractive opportunity for operators.

Meanwhile, wider trends are at play in the IoT market – specifically, the growing penetration of eSIM and the integration of connectivity into IoT devices earlier on in the manufacturing process. These are having a direct impact on smart metering applications and should be factored into the strategies of IoT ecosystem players.
