Abstract The phenomenon of rapid urbanization has presented cities worldwide with a range of complex issues, including the management of resources, the utilization of technology, and the promotion of sustainable practices. In response, the concept of sustainable smart cities has emerged as a practical solution, offering a revolutionary framework for the future of urban living. To scrutinize the research conducted on smart cities, technology, and sustainability in the past decade (2005–2023), a bibliometric analysis was carried out using the biblioshiny platform. The Scopus database was utilized to extract bibliometric data from 1828 articles. Co-authorship, co-occurrence, citation analysis, and bibliographic coupling of author keywords were employed to analyse the data, and the results were presented graphically. The bibliometric analysis divulged that the most frequently encountered themes in academic journals were “sustainability,” “smart city,” “smart technologies,” and “sustainable smart cities.” These findings serve as a sound foundation for future research in this field, which is an emerging issue that requires further exploration. The research work has the potential to pave the way for future studies in related areas and issues of the domain, as many problems are still unexplored. © The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd. 2025.
