The development of digital technologies is changing the properties of power supply systems and blurring the line between power producers and consumers. This study presents the method of the cost of electricity formation in the regional power system, which serves as a component of the approach to assessing the impact of intelligent systems development on the demand for electricity in the region. Determining the cost of electricity in the system is essentially a matter of the consistent alignment of the required amount of electricity consumption with the capabilities of producers seeking to achieve their best economic performance. Each producer is described as an optimization model, which is a standalone agent in a multi-agent power system model.
