Abstract
Smart homes generate a vast amount of data measurements from smart meters and devices. These data have all the velocity and veracity characteristics to be called as Big Data. Meter data analytics holds tremendous potential for utilities to understand customers’ energy consumption patterns, and allows them to manage, plan, and optimize the operation of the power grid efficiently. In this paper, we propose a unified architecture that enables innovative operations for near real-time processing of large fine-grained energy consumption data. Specifically, we propose an Internet of Things (IoT) big data analytics system that makes use of fog computing to address the challenges of complexities and resource demands for near real-time data processing, storage, and classification analysis. The design architecture and requirements of the proposed framework are illustrated in this paper while the analytics components are validated using datasets acquired from real homes.
