Scenario Analysis and Application Research on Big Data in Smart Power Distribution and Consumption Systems

Smart grid is one of the most important technical fields for big data technology application. With the development of smart grid, the deployments of advanced metering infrastructure(AMI), equipment condition monitoring systems result in the production and accumulation of a lot of data. Thus, it is of great significance to fully mine the value of these data. Firstly, aiming at smart power distribution and consumption systems, the paper described the big data and its characteristics. Secondly, the overall business requirements and application scenarios based on big data were analyzed. Among them two typical application scenario analyses were carried out, which were customer electricity usage behavior analysis and load forecasting. Then the research methods of the business application in big data environment were put forward. Finally, necessary big data key technologies were proposed and the technological framework on big data in power distribution and consumption systems was presented.
