Abstract
AbstractSmart buildings, use information and communication technologies for automating the process of heating, ventilation, cooling, security, water and energy management, health of elderly, and thus aids in achieving energy efficiency. There is an urgent need for smart energy-saving buildings, and modifying the existing buildings so that they are able to use various automation systems and smart energy management systems in an effective manner. This paper provides extensive and systematic review of building management systems (BMS) which can be used to improve building energy consumption, achieve energy efficiency, and reduce maintenance and repair costs. In this paper, some studies would be analyzed to identify the technical advances that have laid the base for a better future. This paper also presents the challenges that confront the real-life scenarios and proposes a guideline for the proposed solutions. It can be concluded that various machine to machine and advanced technologies can enable a building to respond intelligently to achieve energy efficiency.KeywordsBuilding management system (BMS)Information and Communication Technologies (ICT)Smart BuildingSmart energyEnergy consumptionSmart technologySmart cityEnergy efficiencySustainableEnergy managementArtificial intelligenceGreen energy
