Organizations are implementing Smart Energy Management Systems (SEMS) to regulate energy consumption patterns and respond to energy-saving instructions due to rising energy prices and demand. The study proposes an intelligent energy management solution that integrates an IoT middleware module and Energy Controller for effective demand side regulation. The study offers an intelligent energy management solution for smart settings that integrates an IoT middleware module and Energy Controller to regulate the demand side effectively. Every IoT device has an energy controller connected, incorporating sensors and actuators. The proposed solution optimizes air conditioner energy usage in Pakistan by analyzing exterior temperature conditions, building dynamics, and data from smart devices. It uses functional interfaces, robust algorithms, and continuous tracking for assessment. To evaluate the proposed methodology the research highlights the system's key benefits and reveals significant energy savings. The smart energy management system provides better air conditioning system control, real-time monitoring, cost savings, environmental advantages, and longer equipment life.
