Subject As new bills on the intellectualization of power distribution networks are approved, specialists of the RF Ministry of Energy expect the digitization of power engineering and boom of smart grid technology. However, seeing how intellectual power grid technology is implemented worldwide as part of innovative projects of power distribution companies, we note that such projects are not always successfully performed. Objectives The research investigates international practices of involving consumers from housing, business and industrial sectors to take part in intellectual power grid projects. Methods The research represents the Multivocal Literature Review (MLR), which is especially efficient in rapidly growing areas of expertise. Results We identified general principles for dealing with consumers from residential and business sectors as part of innovative smart grid projects, determine how power consumption patters change. The article highlights directions for adapting the foreign expertise to the Russian socio-economic and institutional conditions. Conclusions and Relevance It is very important for pilot projects to select, train and prepare consumers. The negative impression of the first consumers and easily spreading notoriety can seriously hamper the dissemination of smart grid innovation. Hence, adapting the results of some foreign smart grid projects to the Russian socio-economic and institutional conditions, we suggest involving employees and students of higher schools to participate in smart grid projects.
