چکیده مقاله :
Internet of things (IOT) technology is being quickly expanded, advanced, and implemented in developed countries. In this situation, Denmark is considered an instance of successful implementation and application of IOT in terms of the connected equipment. The present study investigates the issue of IOT and sustainable development focusing on its environmental effects in Denmark. The research has been done by analytical citation referring to the papers and reports published in Denmark. Study of the resources shows that IOT has realized the goals of sustainable development in the area of environment. Several components including waste management, reduction of pollution and wastes, supplying renewable energies, reduction of carbon production and greenhouse gas emission, energy efficiency, saving energy, and reduction of pollutants have been extracted from the reviewed literature. The results suggest that regarding the use of fuel consumption planning and traffic information, IOT can decrease fossil fuel consumption and pollutants in transportation area. In general, achieving the mentioned goals makes it possible to create environmentally-friendly cities that are favourable places for living.
