Paper Abstract:	Energy efficiency, share of renewable energy sources in the country's energy balance and reduction of pollutant emissions are priorities in the development of modern economy. A significant part of the energy generated is absorbed by the construction sector. It refers not only to the planning stages and the formation of buildings. It has also a special importance in their exploitation. Energy from renewable sources is not fully used and properly managed. The study of the changes in the spatial structure and economic performance of small cities reduced to develop ideas for development mechanisms and tools that can be used by local authorities to stimulate and control the processes taking place in the cities. It is necessary to implement programs supporting the energy development of self- sufficient cooperating settlements complexes. Desirable off-grid capable neighborhoods comprised of renewable energy, power positive homes, storage of energy, water and waste recycling systems must be supported by information resource management. The villages using technology and sensors to monitor living patterns, energy obtain and use, storage efficiency, send data to the cloud of units to learn from each other. Knowledge sharing and operational effectiveness has made effective information management a growing priority for construction industry. The findings provide a much needed practical view of the complexities of information management, highlighting three core categories classed as drivers, constraining factors and barriers. Integrated infrastructure enable units witch surplus energy possibility to help communities with deficiency f energy. Further research is also required to develop appropriate measurement criteria for determining the effectiveness of strategies. The concept combines a variety of innovative technologies, where the outputs of one system are inputs of another. The article is an attempt to show the general trend of the possible development and popularization of self-sufficient settlements. It will contribute to improve energy supply in areas with poorly developed energy infrastructure.
