Emerging changes affect network technologies, computing and communication devices themselves, as well as data processing. As a result, information technologies are being used in an increasing number of spheres of human life and economic life. One of the relevant areas of scientific research is the sphere of the living environment, which is currently developing from the field of Smart Homes into the field of Smart City, Smart Transport system, etc. Today, cities have become the main force of economic development and have taken a central place in production, consumption networks, the definition of social and economic relations and currently provide a significant share of the gross domestic product of many countries. Cities began to play a major role in national, regional, and global development. The quality of people's lives depends on them. Therefore, today, more than ever, special requirements are imposed on them, such as the availability of affordable urban infrastructure, high mobility, security of urban areas, environmental friendliness, and developed urban self-government. Governments and city government bodies are facing new challenges that should not only solve a whole range of emerging problems, but also carry out a radical transformation of cities. One of the key components of the transformation is intelligent electrical networks. This article aims to identify and systematize technological, economic and other effects of the introduction of intelligent networks. The article analyzes current trends and approaches to urban planning with an emphasis on energy infrastructure. A comprehensive approach to the development of the power supply system is noted, the main directions of its intellectualization are highlighted. The general requirements for the "smart" power supply system of Astana are defined, a conceptual management model of the "smart" power system is developed, and the effects of its implementation are described.
