7、eceived: 2015-07-150 ForewordWith development of smart meters, utility companies are dealing with more data coming from more connected nodes than any industry, especially in the distribution system. Recently, many published works have explored the big data application in distribution systems. The ma
8、in achievements can be classed into two aspects: 1)Summaries of big data theory. Paper 1 analyzed the basic features of the big data in distribution system. The typical applications in load forecasting, operating condition evaluation and power quality monitoring Velocity contains two meanings: one i
9、s the disposing speed, most of the measured data in ADS is near real time; the other is the different time scales and sampling intervals. Value stands for that most of the data contains low and repeating information.From the aspect of variety, the big data includes the device data, operating data an
10、d management data. Different data should be analyzed by different algorithm14-15. The illustration is shown in Fig.3.图 3 主动配电网中大数据的多样性 Fig.3Variety of the big data in ADS 下载原图1.3 Analysis of Data MiningThe core of the application of big data is to extract the patterns from existing disparate sets to
11、:1) predict outcomes and optimize solution; 2)execute in real-time to improve operational decision-making.A variety of algorithms is commonly used to mine the data, including the clustering, K-mean, neural network, correlation analysis16-18.Comparedwith the traditional data systems, the data in ADS
12、contains new characteristics. The explanations are summarized as follows: 1)Wide sources, complex relation, fine-grained, variety of crystal structure and fast production can be seen as the first feature of big data in ADS1-2,19. 2)Massive size, rich information, hard processing and so on, are the s
13、econd main feature of big data in ADS. From above analysis, it is necessary to seek for applied technology of big data which is compatible with the characters of distributionsystem 20-21.Although many theoretical analyses of big data have been done, the real application of big data to serve the util
14、ity and customer are just at the beginning. There is a lack of information on how to implement the real application in the society. In this paper, one typical company named Auto Grid and their products are proposed in the next chapter22.2 Introduction of Products of Auto GridIn the last decade, part
15、icipants in the electricity supply chain have been processing thousands of times more data than before, mostly from smart meters,distributed generation and other building and grid sensing technologies. In this context, Auto Grid was founded in 2011, with the vision of turning the big data into knowl

With our tools, the emergency capacity can be reduced by the big data analysis.2)MUNIS, CO-OPS.Auto Grid delivers services over the cloud, reducing the cost of demand management systems by 90 percen

With our software, ESCOs,demand response providers, electricity retailers and others can employ demand management tools.Auto Grid increases power “yields” by 30 percent o

24、entire electricity supply chain. Additionally, Auto Grids system architecture performs all of these activities at scale-even in situations with millions of meters. By providing timely, actionable intelligence from the exponentially expanding wave of data, EDPallows creation of new applications that

27、 accessed through a highly secure public or private cloud, depending on the needs of the customer. Because it is based on open standards, such as Open ADR and Zig Bee, DROMS is compatible with the broad ecosystem of software, networks and hardware already deployed. By using open standards,Auto Grid
