Abstract

This study explores the integration of Internet of Things (IoT) technologies in urban settings to enhance energy efficiency. This research combines a thorough literature review with an analysis of diverse case studies to understand the impact of IoT solutions in smart cities. Key areas of focus include IoT applications in smart buildings, energy grids, and urban transportation systems. The findings reveal that IoT technologies significantly contribute to reducing energy consumption and improving overall urban sustainability. However, the study also addresses challenges such as technological integration, scalability, and data security. The insights gained provide valuable guidance for urban planners and policymakers in leveraging IoT for sustainable urban development. This paper underscores the potential of IoT as a critical tool in transforming urban infrastructure, navigating through the complexities and highlighting future pathways for innovation and implementation in smart city initiatives
