    • Title: Low Voltage Data Analytics: Roadblocks, Challenges, and Future Opportunities

    Date: October 20, 2021

    Bio:Dr Stephen Haben is a digital and data consultant at Energy Systems Catapult (ESC) and a Visiting Research Fellow at the Mathematical Institute in the University of Oxford where his research is focused on load forecasting for low voltage energy systems, battery storage control and energy analytics. His work at ESC focuses on how to support the energy sector through digital solutions, improving data access and helping bridge the gap between industry and academia. He has over ten years of experience in big data and data science and was the academic project manager on the £30M New Thames Valley Vision Project from 2013-2017. He received his PhD from the University of Reading in 2011 in the conditioning and preconditioning of variational data assimilation for numerical weather prediction systems.

    Abstract:With the increased monitoring of low voltage networks there is a move towards more localised energy networks with unique technological and market opportunities. Integration of advanced analytics, forecasting and control methods provide many new mechanisms for supporting the future low carbon networks but also produce many challenges. This talk will discuss some of these challenges and opportunities based on our research and recent work. Included in our talk will be discussions on how smart meter data will drive new ways to manage customers, how community storage can be used to provide benefits to consumers and the network, what are some of the roadblocks to realising these opportunities, and what are some of the ways we are trying to help facilitate better use of data and analytics.
