摘要：Globalization, urbanization, digitalization, climate change create new trends in improving of the competitiveness of the national economy by acting industrial system optimization in the format of the “Industry 4.0” concept, aimed at integrating of physical operations and related processes of production systems into a single information space. However, this can not be done outside the solution of the problem of increasing the competitiveness of cities - the concentration of production systems. Energy efficiency ensuring is the main feature of production system optimizing of the new generation “Industry 4.0”. The aim of the research is to reveal the potential of a new paradigm for production systems optimizing based on the “Industry 4.0” concept in the regions of Russia. The article shows historical experience and features of production system optimization based on the concept of “Industry 4.0” in the regions of Russia; practical aspects of introduction of digital technologies in production systems on the basis of “smart city” concepts aimed at resource and energy saving; the rationale of the advantages of the original local automated system for energy efficiency managing at industrial enterprises which have a high potential for introducing and stimulating of energy saving effects in the optimization of production systems.
