Resumen

With the advancement of technology and the need for digitization, the development of smart cities is increasing, and the Asia Pacific region has become a global benchmark. These are cities that seek sustainability, aligned with the preservation of the environment and the improvement of the quality of life of its citizens. This article presents a systematic review of the literature on smart cities and sustainable development in Asia Pacific. First, concepts are explained in relation to renewable energy practices, the suitability of information and communication technologies (ICT), and urban mobility. Then, the various contexts where smart cities are developed are analyzed and compared; the trends that are implemented in relation to renewable energy; the technological advances that are achieved or developed to satisfy the diverse needs of each city; and the obstacles that have been overcome in relation to the current arrangement of urban mobility. Finally, the research trends of smart cities and sustainable development in the Asia Pacific region in the period 2010-2022 are determined, as well as the initiatives and strategies that have been implemented in the process of transformation to smart and sustainable cities.
