R&D Nester starts new European H2020 Project “BD4NRG” – Big Data for Next Generation Energy

The project BD4NRG - "Big Data for Next Generation Energy" is a 3-year project that started on January 2021 and will last until December 2023.

The need of increasing levels of information to operate the power systems is unveiling an enormous opportunity for energy stakeholders to leverage on Big Data and AI technologies to improve decision making.

In that respect the project BD4NRG that involves 35 partners from 12 countries will in short:

- Deliver a reference architecture to enable B2B multi-party data exchange, while providing full interoperability of leading-edge big data technologies with smart grid standards and operational frameworks;

- Deliver an open modular big data analytic toolbox (data, computing resources, models, algorithms);

- Deliver predictive and prescriptive edge AI-based big data analytics on 13 large scale pilots, deployed by different energy stakeholders (e.g. TSOs and DSOs, aggregators, local energy communities, ESCOs, etc), covering the energy value chain.

BD4NRG two days kick-off web-meeting counted with the participation of its 35 partners, from 12 countries, where, amid many others, R&D NESTER, REN, UNINOVA and ENERCOUTIM are from Portugal.

R&D Nester together with REN (Portuguese TSO) will develop proof-of-concept solutions to support two assets that are critical for the performance of the power systems:

- Condition-based maintenance of circuit breakers taking into account different operational conditions

- Generate a semi-automatic maintenance plan for overhead lines from inspection data.


The project is financed in scope of the H2020 program.
