Abstract

Digitalization of the economy is one of the priorities of the Long-term development strategy of the Russian Federation. One of the key components of the digital economy is Smart grids. This study aims to identify and systematize the technological, economic and other effects of the introduction of intelligent energy networks. The sources of these effects can either be a transition to digital management in the electricity industry, or a change in the behavior patterns of consumer companies, business practices of energy supply and service companies.
