Cellular M2M connections are forecast to grow from 135 million in 2011 to 2.3 billion by 2020, as research from Parks Associates shows a great potential for service providers in the emerging connected home market. For example, 12 percent of US consumers and 9 percent of Western European consumers are highly interested in home security and home automation, and 19 percent of Western European consumers are highly interested in an energy monitoring service.
