Abstract
As buildings severely impact global energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions, effective maintenance becomes more important for their performance and sustainability. On the other hand, digital twins, as a promising technology, enhance building operation and maintenance by providing near real-time data and insights. To better understand the efficiency of building maintenance using digital twins, we analyzed twelve recent papers, highlighting benefits (such as energy efficiency, reduced costs), challenges (data quality, interoperability), and opportunities (integration with AI, IoT) in residential, commercial, and industrial buildings.
