Big Data Synchrophasor Monitoring and Analytics for Resiliency Tracking (BDSMART)

pastedGraphic.png

Performer                : Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station

Partners                    : OSIsoft LLC; Quanta Technology, LLC; Temple University

Title                            : Big Data Synchrophasor Monitoring and Analytics for Resiliency Tracking (BDSMART)

Federal Funds          : $1,000,000

Cost Share                : $696,560

Total Project Value: $1,696,560

Summary                  : The project utilizes Big Data Analytics (BDA) to automate monitoring of synchrophasor recordings. This improves assessing events that may affect power system resilience. The BDA is used to automatically extract knowledge leading to event analysis, classification and prediction, all used at different stages of the grid resilience assessment: operations, operations planning, and planning. The project’s techniques are based on their past work performed at the Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station (TEES) on automated classification of faults, location of faults and instability detection using neural network and machine learning classifiers and predictors, and the latest innovations in BDA techniques developed by Temple University. The team engages Quanta Technology experts experienced in the utility interaction to interpret the PMU data files to be utilized in the process. They facilitate industry feedback leading to the development of metrics for evaluation of the proposed solution. Additionally, the project proposes a novel solution for predicting future events based on historical PMU data by extracting the sets of precursors and analyzing the development of PMU observed disturbances over time.
