Abstract

This paper discusses the integration of advanced technologies into sustainable urban infrastructure development. With the rapid urbanization and increasing global population, the need for efficient and eco-friendly urban systems has become paramount. The integration of cutting-edge technologies, such as renewable energy, smart grids, and IoT (Internet of Things), can significantly enhance the sustainability of urban infrastructure. This abstract aims to explore the potential benefits of these technologies and their applications in various urban systems, including transportation, water management, and waste management. Additionally, the paper highlights the challenges in integrating these technologies and proposes strategies for their successful implementation. By adopting a holistic approach, this research aims to contribute to the development of sustainable urban environments that can support the growing demand for resources and services while minimizing environmental impact.
