Abstract: Energy resources are essential for the functioning of modern society and their connection with smart grids. Developing an urban smart grid involves a multi-faceted process of upgrading and optimizing electrical infrastructure and represents a holistic approach to transforming urban energy ecosystems, aligning with global sustainability goals, while providing cities with resilient electrical infrastructure and efficient to face the challenges of the 21st century. This paper proposes to identify the theoretical and applied concepts related to the engineering of the control system that is the basis of a smart urban network, to present the relevant elements regarding concepts, structures, algorithms, and mathematical models. The paper contains an analysis of what exists in practical approaches, simulation platforms, connections to the Energy Internet, and examples of each. In the last part, it presents contributions and future research directions.
