Intelligent electrical systems are one of the primary technological responses to contemporary challenges in the energy sector, particularly given the increasing demand for efficiency, reliability, sustainability, and integration of renewable energy sources. The problem guiding this study lies in the technical, regulatory, and socioeconomic complexity involved in implementing intelligent electrical systems, as well as in structural limitations that still hinder their consolidation, particularly in developing countries. The general objective is to critically analyze intelligent electrical systems, understanding their conceptual foundations, technological architecture, operational challenges, and impacts on energy management and consumption. Methodologically, a qualitative approach is adopted, of a bibliographic and documentary nature, with critical analysis of scientific productions in addition to technical standards, institutional reports, and regulatory frameworks of the electrical sector. The results indicate that intelligent electrical systems expand operational efficiency, network reliability, and active consumer participation, but they face challenges related to interoperability, cybersecurity, regulation, implementation costs, and technical training. It is concluded that the consolidation of intelligent electrical systems requires articulation between technological innovation, consistent public policies, adequate regulation, and training of qualified professionals, to promote a safe, efficient, and socially sustainable energy transition.
