Abstract

This paper explores the transformative impact of smart building technologies on sustainability and performance in the built environment. It delves into key technologies such as the Internet of Things (IoT), artificial intelligence (AI), automation systems, and smart sensors, examining their roles in enhancing energy efficiency, water conservation, waste management, and environmental monitoring. The paper highlights how these technologies improve operational efficiency, occupant comfort, space utilization, and cost savings, offering substantial returns on investment. Despite the challenges of high initial costs, interoperability issues, and cybersecurity concerns, the paper discusses potential solutions and future trends, emphasizing the importance of policy and regulatory support. Ultimately, adopting smart building technologies is a critical step toward achieving sustainability goals and creating healthier, more efficient, and responsive buildings.

  • Acting on early warning signs before problems become crises improves both effectiveness and sustainability.

    “Acting on such evidence before problems become crises improves both effectiveness and sustainability (Adesuyi, et al., 2024, Babatope, et al., 2024, Liadi, et al., 2024, Oluwadele, Tawose & Adetumbi, 2024).”

    From Conceptual Model for Financial Sustainability and Strategic Resource Allocation in Nonprofit Organizations (2025) · cites this paper as Babatope, et al., 2024

    Section 4.1 says smart building systems detect signs of wear early and schedule maintenance before minor issues become major problems, improving operational efficiency. Section 3.4 adds that proactive maintenance reduces downtime and the environmental impact of emergency repairs. These passages support the claim in smart buildings, but not its unqualified application to problems generally. (LLM, conf=0.82)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
