The global market for smart buildings is set to grow by at least 21.8% this year, reaching between $117 billion and $252 billion, thanks to the deployment of artificial intelligence (AI), the Internet of Things (IoT) and advanced data analytics systems, as well as other technologies, according to Xylem Vue, a secure, integrated and agnostic software and analytics platform.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/span>Urban sustainability is steaming ahead globally thanks to the revolution in smart buildings and district heating and cooling (DHC) networks, which aim to streamline resource and energy management in cities.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/span>The uptake of technologies such as integrated digital platforms is pivotal to optimizing these systems.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/span>Smart buildings continue to redefine efficient resource use and sustainability, it stated.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/span>In 2025, the global market is estimated to soar with a compound annual growth rate of between 21.8% and 29.7% (Fortune Business Insights) in core segments such as energy management and security.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/span>According to Xylem Vue, this increase is linked to the deployment of technologies such as AI, IoT and advanced data analytics tools.<\/p>\n These buildings, which are equipped with information and communication technology-based systems, require integrated digital platforms to manage multiple assets in real time and monitor their performance, from boosting energy efficiency to optimizing the operations of a range of systems, such as lighting, parking, and air conditioning.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/span>These emerging solutions for smart buildings include digital twins and energy management systems that optimize resource use and predict maintenance needs, it stated.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/span>According to Beatriz Bolonio, Solutions Selling Buildings & Industry at Xylem Vue, combining data via integrated platforms is transforming energy efficiency and paving the way for sustainable cities.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/span>These tools help to increase efficiency and reduce operating costs in commercial buildings, which will continue to lead the market with a 53% share in 2025.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/span>DHC networks are gaining ground in smart cities.<\/p>\n In addition, digital platforms are also becoming crucial in efficiently managing thermal energy distribution, as they enable the integration of various renewable energy sources and real-time adaptation to heating and cooling needs in different buildings.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/span>According to Xylem Vue, “Platforms are constantly monitored to optimize energy flow, improve operational efficiency, and ensure a rapid response to fluctuations in demand.”<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/span>This year, district heating and cooling (DHC) networks are gaining ground as a solution for reducing emissions and boosting energy efficiency, \u201cby integrating more and more renewable sources and waste energy recovery systems, thus promoting circular models, stated Xylem Vue.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/span>In addition, the benefits of DHC networks include a smaller operational footprint and reduced maintenance costs, positioning them as a key component of smart cities.<\/p>\n <\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The global market for smart buildings is set to
