Big Data

Evolving technologies in the energy and utilities industry, including smart systems, can provide facilities with unprecedented capabilities for forecasting demand, shaping usage patterns, preventing failures, optimizing systems performance and reporting. These advances also generate unprecedented data volume, speed and complexity. To manage and use this information to gain useful insight, facilities personnel and utility operators must be capable of high-volume data management and advanced analytics designed to transform data into actuation and intelligence. This course helps learners’ design effective demand response programs, execute advanced analytics across a combination of data about facilities, personnel, energy consumption, physical grid behavior, internal and external generation capacity, energy commodity markets and weather.
