The Impact of IoT-Enabled Smart Home Systems on Energy Consumption

Smart building technologies have emerged as a key solution to improving energy efficiency in modern urban infrastructure. This study compares the energy consumption behavior of a smart office building located in Bangkok with that of a traditional university campus building in Florida. Using the SARIMAX model, we assess the influence of ambient temperature on daily energy usage. The findings indicate that smart buildings demonstrate greater resilience to temperature fluctuations, likely due to advanced control mechanisms and energy management systems. In contrast, the traditional building shows a statistically significant correlation between temperature and energy consumption. These results suggest that smart technologies can effectively mitigate the impact of environmental conditions on building energy use, contributing to more sustainable and adaptive energy systems.
