contents Construction and operating of buildings is one of the major contributors to global greenhouse emissions. With the inefficient usage of energy due to human behavior and manual operation, the energy consumption of buildings is further increased. These challenges highlight the need for improved Building Energy Management Systems (BEMS) integrated with Internet of Things (IoT) and data driven intelligence to enhance energy-efficiency in a building and contribute to Net-Zero Energy Buildings (NZEB) targets. This paper offers four keys contributions: i) a systematic review of IoT enabled BEMS including components, network architecture and functional capabilities, ii) an evaluation of real-world BEMS datasets to support Artificial Intelligence (AI) based predictive control, iii) an analysis of integration challenges related to interoperability, smart grids and net-zero energy strategies, and iv) a case study highlighting global best practices, performances outcomes, and lesson learned for scaling advanced BEMS solutions.
