Residents of megacities dream of improving the quality of life, environmental conditions, solving transport problems, and improving comfort and safety. Scientific and technological progress opens up opportunities for innovative development of the urban environment. At the same time, energy supply is becoming one of the key elements of the city of the future, because smart robotic systems will depend on its sustainability. The structure of the energy system and the organization of its operation determine energy costs, the amount of harmful emissions, rational methods of heat supply, and the degree of participation of consumer devices in load balancing. The existing projects of such cities have made it possible to test the viability of various solutions in practice and identify a number of limitations and problems. The directions of development of the energy complex listed in the article have identified aspects that need to be addressed today. It is important that the plans include flexibility and the possibility of expansion, which will ensure the introduction of innovations. Proper urban management, in turn, will help to balance the load on the energy system, and therefore reduce the overall cost of energy supply.
