Abstract The smart grid (SG) and Internet of things (IoT) are arguably most important feature in any smart city (SC). If energy unavailable for a significant period of time, all other associated functions will be eventually affected. On the other side, IoT ensures integration of diversified networks, wireless technologies, and appliances. This enables smart communication between various devices, so that they can smartly communicate with each other. Smart city is one of the applications of IoT. Smart city encompasses improved infrastructure for better economic growth and quality life style. Recent technological trends have led to the rise in demand for efficient communication between devices without any human intervention, thus creating a huge market for IoT. With the abundance of opportunities for growth, every developed country, even some of the developing countries, are now come up with their own fully funded IoT projects. This paper summarized the role of IoT for the development of smart city and also presents architecture for the smart city for efficient utilization of infrastructure and challenges of IoT infrastructure development with their solution; further it enlists applications of IoT based on their domain.
