Annotation: The phenomenon of digital transformation in the management of the city’s heat supply is a necessary measure to prevent a huge number of emergency situations in the field of thermal power engineering, which allows timely saving and reducing the scale of the consequences and the number of emergency situations during the heating season and in the management of the city’s heat supply. The introduction of digital technologies makes it possible to evaluate the effectiveness in changing the efficiency of heat supply systems and improving the efficiency of thermal infrastructure in particular, thereby allowing to reduce heat prices to the end consumer. Domestic experience shows that there are a number of obstacles to the active introduction of «digital energy» in the country, which would make it possible to modernize facilities not only for the production of heat, but also for its transmission and distribution. Outdated equipment, incompetence of managerial decisions in the field of thermal power engineering, the imposition of economic sanctions against the Russian Federation and the lack of logistics slow down the process of introducing digitalization, which allows you to remotely collect information, reduce costs and automatically control and maintain a comfortable temperature for consumers. With proper and timely implementation, it can provide benefits and benefits from the state to the end consumer. The article considers the advantages of introducing digital technologies in the field of thermal power engineering, analyzes the reasons hindering the process of digital transformation in the city’s heat supply system, and proposes a number of measures to eliminate existing barriers.
Keywords: digital transformation, digital technologies, economic systems management, automation, thermal power engineering.
