This article analyzes current trends in the formation of the digital economy in the energy sector, particularly the capabilities of Smart Grid and Digital Twin technologies and their impact on production, distribution, consumption, and management systems. The stages and functional directions of digital transformation are examined, and advanced digital energy models of Germany, the USA, China, and Japan are comparatively analyzed. The practical experience of implementing SCADA, AMR, and ERP systems in the energy sector of Uzbekistan is studied, based on which priority areas and strategic recommendations for the digitalization of the national energy sector are developed. The research results highlight the theoretical and practical foundations for forming a digital energy ecosystem in Uzbekistan.

Digital transformation of cities is becoming increasingly relevant in the context of Industry 4.0. This paper explores the role of digital twins in strategic planning for the development of smart cities within the context of Industry 4.0. The paper delves into how digital
twins can be used to model urban systems, optimize management, and facilitate data-driven decision-making. A particular focus is placed on the role of digital twins in fostering sustainable and inclusive urban environments.
