TOWARDS A CARBON-NEUTRAL FUTURE: THE IMPACT OF INTEGRATED APPLICATIONS OF SMART SYSTEMS ON CARBON FOOTPRINT

Abstract

Today, global warming and climate change were primarily driven by greenhouse gas emissions, which have become some of the most significant threats to environmental sustainability and all life forms. Reducing the carbon footprint is one of the key strategies for diminishing this threat, and smart systems play a crucial and central pivot role in this process. This review article examines the influence and potential of smart systems in achieving a carbon-neutral future. It first investigates the contributions of innovative technologies in areas such as smart devices, energy management systems, transportation solutions, and water and wastewater management to environmental sustainability. The study provides a detailed discussion on how IoT-based energy management, smart building systems, the integration of renewable energy, and smart grids enhance energy efficiency and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Furthermore, it features how electric and autonomous vehicles, intelligent traffic management, public transportation, and micro-mobility optimization boost sustainable urban mobility. In addition, the role of smart water management and circular economy approaches in limiting waste generation and reducing greenhouse gas emissions, especially carbon dioxide is evaluated. However, several key challenges delay the extensive adoption of smart systems. This study discusses the policies, stimulus mechanisms, and research and development efforts needed to overcome these barriers. Finally, it offers recommendations on the future of smart systems and potential areas for further development.

KARBON NÖTR GELECEĞE DOĞRU: AKILLI SİSTEMLERİN ENTEGRE UYGULAMALARIYLA KARBON AYAK İZİ ÜZERİNDEKİ ETKİSİ

Öz

Günümüzde sera gazları kaynaklı olan küresel ısınma ve iklim değişikliği, çevresel sürdürülebilirlik ve canlı yaşamı açısından en büyük tehditlerden biri haline geldi. Karbon ayak izinin azaltılması, bu tehdidi en aza indirmek için başlıca stratejilerden birisi olup, akıllı sistemler bu süreçte oldukça önemlidir ve anahtar bir rol oynamaktadır. Bu derleme makalesi, akıllı sistemlerin karbon nötr bir geleceğe ulaşmadaki etkisini ve potansiyelini incelemektedir. Öncelikle, akıllı cihazlar, enerji yönetim sistemleri, ulaşım çözümleri ile su ve atıksu yönetimi gibi alanlardaki yenilikçi teknolojilerin çevresel sürdürülebilirliğe katkıları incelenmiştir. Çalışmada, IoT tabanlı enerji yönetimi, akıllı bina sistemleri, yenilenebilir enerjinin entegre edilmesi ve akıllı şebekeler gibi teknolojilerin enerji verimliliğini artırarak sera gazı salınımlarını nasıl düşürdüğü detaylı bir şekilde aktarılmakta ve örneklerle anlatılmaktadır. Ayrıca, elektrikli ve otonom araçlar, akıllı trafik yönetimi ve toplu taşıma ile beraber mikro mobilite optimizasyonunun şehirlerde sürdürülebilir bir hareketliliği teşvik ettiği vurgulanmaktadır. Bunun yanı sıra, akıllı su yönetimi ve döngüsel ekonomi yaklaşımlarının atık miktarını ve karbon dioksit başta olmak üzere sera gazı salınımını azaltmadaki rolü değerlendirilmiştir. Ancak, akıllı sistemlerin yaygınlaşmasını engelleyen bazı temel zorluklar bulunmaktadır. Çalışmada, bu engellerin aşılması için gerekli olan politikalar, teşvik mekanizmaları ve araştırma-geliştirme faaliyetleri tartışılmıştır. Son olarak, akıllı sistemlerin geleceği ve gelişim alanları üzerine öneriler sunulmuştur.
