An Overview of Internet of Energy (IoE) Based Building Energy Management System

Buildings are important contributors to energy consumption accounting for around one-third of the total primary energy in the world. A building energy management system (BEMs) is an efficient method used for monitoring and controlling a building’s energy needs. To solve these existing issues of the current building energy management system such as the large amounts of BEMs energy data, energy data loss and energy overload problems, a BEMs based on Internet of Energy (IoE) has been proposed. In this paper, we will give the potential of IoE-based BEMs for enhancing the performance of building energy utilization in the future. Within the scope of this paper, the future trends of IoE in various fields will be discussed.
