Abstract

The article is devoted to the development of digital technologies in the electric power industry of Russia. It is proved in the work that in recent years the issues of the industry's transition to a qualitatively new development path, which, according to the authors of the study, should be based on the introduction of digital technologies and smart grids in the electric power industry, have become relevant. The study presented the main advantages of the Smart Grid system, which are self-regulation of the electric power industry and maintaining stability and reliability in the long term. At the same time, it was revealed that the transition to digital technologies requires the industry to form a new asset and production unit management system related both to the superstructure and the creation of new energy complex management elements. At the same time, it is expected that the introduction of Smart Grid will increase the economic, environmental, social and technological effect both for the industry and for the national economy as a whole.
