Abstract
This research aims to study smart buildings and compare them with traditional buildings in Egypt, focusing on economic, environmental, and social benefits. The study examines the technologies used in smart buildings, such as Artificial Intelligence (AI), Internet of Things (IoT), and Energy Management Systems (EMS), and their impact on energy efficiency, sustainability, and user comfort.
The results reveal that smart buildings can achieve up to a 40% reduction in energy consumption compared to traditional buildings, with improved maintenance operations through predictive maintenance using AI models. Additionally, smart lighting systems based on LDR sensors significantly reduce electricity consumption.
The comparison highlights that traditional buildings lack the flexibility to adapt to environmental changes and fluctuations in energy demand, resulting in higher operational costs. In contrast, smart buildings promote environmental sustainability, enhance user comfort, and support smart city goals.
The study recommends increasing investment in smart building management systems in Egypt to meet sustainability and energy efficiency standards. It also suggests the establishment of regulatory frameworks to accelerate the transition towards smart buildings.
