Abstract: The topic of Big Data and associated analytics became prominent as the huge amounts of data became available through the space exploration, weather forecasting and medical biogenetic investigations. Social media and outlets such as Google, YouTube, Facebook, Amazon and others have also faced similar problems of handling huge data sets. The power systems are now experiencing huge amount of data obtained through field measurements and external sources such as variety of weather and other ambient data. This talk focuses on the role of Big Data analytics in managing and controlling future power system by predicting power system outages at different time horizons. This talk gives examples how the Big Data analytics are recently used to successful predict transmission and distribution faults, as well as participation of distributed energy resources in various grid services. Future trends are also discussed.
