Towards Sustainability by IoT in Smart Buildings—Case Studies in China
Keywords:
Smart buildings, IoT, SustainabilityAbstract
In recent years, a plethora of solutions have been facilitated by the Internet of Things (IoT) in smart buildings aimed at realizing dual-carbon goals and sustainable development. Despite a general emphasis on sustainability, existing IoT-based solutions typically focus on monitoring and managing energy consumption and generation. Based on comparative case studies of the Winter Olympics program, Haier Smart Home, and the energy recovery and management in Xiongan New Area respectively, our interest captures an expanded view of sustainability and provides Chinese solutions to achieve this goal.
