Abstract

Smart Cities are making massive use of information and communication technologies, which are leading to significant digitization. However, the rate at which technology is currently being implemented is on the increase. Modern cities play a leading role in sustainable strategic development. They have a central position in developing and applying advanced technologies to support environmental sustainability in the face of the escalating urbanization trend. Smart grid specifics are finally starting to emerge from the marketing haze. In a smart grid, utilities manage their electrical supply and productivity cost-effectively, and energy customers benefit from a more efficient power system. This article focuses on the main strategies of the resource efficiency management associated with smart grid and sustainable cities.
