The main criteria for evaluating the efficiency of operation of heating networks and points are considered, and the task of their modernization through the reconstruction and introduction of digital technologies is set. The following criteria were selected as evaluation criteria: reliability criterion - integral shortage undersupply of thermal energy, thermal energy quality criterion - pressure losses, economic efficiency criterion - technological heat losses in the network, physical condition criterion - network wear coefficient. The parameters of the existing heating network of the district boiler house No. 1111 in Volgograd were analyzed. Using a multicriteria model, taking into account the uncertainty of heat loads, using a multiplicative criterion, the optimal variant of the order of reconstruction and modernization of network sections and heat points was obtained. A mathematical model of the fuzzy set of the decision efficiency criterion is considered, and the modal value of the functional is determined using an algorithm written in the Python language.
