    THE SMART ENERGY CONSUMPTION MANAGEMENT IN BUILDINGS
    (2023-10-10) Baraa A. Hakawati
    Abstract Smart energy consumption management, a novel technology that increases energy efficiency and lowers energy use in buildings, operates on IoT principles. The purpose of this study is to comprehend how household awareness of smart energy consumption management affects smart energy consumption management and its effects on user behavior, expenses, and environmental impact. A survey with 100 valid replies was used in the research model to assess the knowledge and consumption habits of building tenants in Palestine. However, Partial Least Squares-Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) and Smart-PLS software were used to assess the research model. The study results clearly indicate that installing intelligent energy consumption management systems in residential buildings can lead to significant improvements in energy efficiency. Implementing these advanced energy management systems holds great promise for enhancing sustainability, particularly by reducing environmental impact. The critical revelation from this research is the necessity for initiatives focused on enhancing residents' familiarity with these systems. Education and awareness campaigns are essential to encourage energy conservation and the responsible use of energy-efficient equipment. In conclusion, this study underscores the transformative potential of smart energy consumption management in contributing to a more sustainable and energy-efficient future for residential buildings, but it emphasizes that knowledge dissemination and awareness-raising efforts are integral to realizing these benefits.
