The emergence of the concept of “smart energy cities” is reviewed. The initial focus on buildings and energy grids has been upscaled to encompass multiple urban sectors. Smart energy city has developed to represent digitally-mediated low carbon cities. An integrated, holistic and multi-stakeholder perspective dominates recent debates.
To build a smart city, it is necessary to modernise the energy sector and integrate ICT into the grid. New and existing buildings in smart cities use less energy and do more. Efficient energy management is one of the most challenging problems due to its complexity and significance.
A smart city is an innovative concept for managing metropolitan areas to increase their residents’ sustainability and quality of life. This article examines the management and evolution of energy generation, various storage systems and the applications they serve, and infrastructure technology’s current condition and future prospects.
To keep a system working well throughout the year, fossil fuels must be utilised as a backup energy source. The Smart Cities Energy Prediction Task Force predicts electrical usage using STLF, SVM, and e-learning machines. Additionally, the study also examines energy-related construction and transportation systems and technologies.
Due to its complexity and significance, efficient energy management is one of the most challenging problems in smart cities. In order to construct a smart city, it is necessary to modernise the energy sector and integrate ICT into the grid.
The expansion of “smart cities” has the potential to enhance people’s lives and provide them happiness. This study aims to improve the efficacy of energy and development in smart cities, benefiting the government, the environment, and the local population.
