You are cordially invited the BIG marriage


Match Made in Heaven

It is a made for each other match between energy and big data; especially green energy. You are all invited to partake in the marriage.

The role of Big Data Technology in all spans of energy is impending; its span includes generation, transmission, distribution and even the smart grid; it encompasses all functions: the full supply chain, manufacturing and assembly of different equipment, transportation logistics, installation, operation and maintenance.

Let us discuss one example at a time to make the point, starting with green energy, also called alternative or clean energy technology

Solar PV

The solar PV industry supply chain is made up of solar cell manufacturers, panel assemblers / manufacturers, the inverter companies, tracker companies, mounting and cabling companies.

The transportation logistics, installation, operation and maintenance for all type and size of installations: small and large solar farms on land, industrial, commercial and military roof top installations, the residential roof top installations, the building integrated PV (BIPV), on parking lot roof tops, solar for telecom towers and so on. Don't forget the soldiers who could carry flexible solar panels.

Now, wireless sensor networks (WSN) on the panels are very much needed to monitor the health of the solar panels. There would be WSN for perimeter security, building security, other asset security and the security monitoring of even the soldiers.

The WSN will routinely monitor not only security and report any failures, but more routinely the performance parameters of the different panels, spread across a small or large solar farms, roof tops, buildings, telecom towers and even the GPS based location monitoring, all mashed up on zoom capable maps. The WSN will also be for weather / climatic conditions like temperature, wind, dust, rain, hail.

This is essentially machine generated or WSN reported big data. When there would be hundreds of GW of solar installations in the upcoming years, it spells peta, exa and zetta bytes of big data, every hour, day, week and month of the year.

WSN as an Exploding Business Opportunity

Does this also give you any ideas of WSN as a very big opportunity, from variety of sensors, wireless motes, mesh network, gateways, monitoring centers in the data centers and on the cloud?

Other Green Energy Big Data Business Opportunity

The logical discussion in the previous paragraphs on Solar PV applies to the following: Solar Thermal, Wind Power, Hydro, Geothermal, Fuel Cells, Waste to Energy, Biomass to Energy etc.

Legacy Energy Big Data Business Opportunity

The legacy technologies whether they are coal, natural gas, big or micro hydro, big data would play a vital role in enabling and empowering all stake holders with aggregated, analyzed, actionable enterprise and infrastructure intelligence for prudent decision making.

We are Big Data Strategists and Futurists

Yes, we are loosing sleep over this 'business big bang' all over the world. Every minute and hour my brain is exploding with all these big bang explosion in big data applicable to many verticals, especially the energy industry.

Our company has developed proprietary secrets for USA and rest of the world to leverage on big data based aggregated, analysed, actionable business and enterprise intelligence for a variety of decision making, and vital routine use at all levels from CEO, CFO, COO down to supervisory professionals.

The investors in energy industry / market in private and public companies will find important decision and investment diversification decision value addition in big data.

In addition,  our company has developed additional secrets to ensure security of the different energy infrastructures. 

Energy companies should prudently adopt a holistic approach by utilizing the big data available through intently installing various wireless sensor networks through generation, transmission, distribution and the powermonitoring devices in residential, commercial, industrial, government and military buildings and campuses.  Load management and power routing is extremely important for enhancing financial performance of the business and getting most of the big data intelligence. It all spells "high availability"

Thousands of new breeds of entrepreneurs will emerge stimulating business and employment opportunities in big data collection, different stages of processing, analysis, intelligence, data and visualization.


Increasingly in the energy industry and infrastructure,  O&M, as well as total business efficiency, the big data analysis must be accomplished in near-real time to provide the best return on investment for pertinent stakeholders. 

Feel free to contact us for big data strategy, proof of concept (POC), implementation and execution of your company big data strategy.

We will also be glad to be Key Note Speakers and featured speakers in international conferences and also organize & moderate panels discussion, and interview experts as part of fire side chats.

Background:

The citizens of the world today are producing more data than ever in the history. Without consciously thinking about it, their mobile handsets, their bank and credit card type transactions, while at home, driving around and even their very homes are producing “big data”. We do not speak of giga or terra anymore, already in peta, and soon exa and in the upcoming years zetta and much larger numbers of bytes of data. Please note that each of these measures of data are progressively 1000 times the previous.

There is inflation or explosion of data volumes, and we have recently crossed inflexion point or the cusp of this unprecedented and accelerated growth of data. As a futurist, Dr. KRS Murthy professes that (big) data will be the new international currency, with various big data bartering, trading and swaps becoming a common thing of the upcoming years.

Big data is a 'gigantic creature' that seems to grow with unending appetite. Big data technology in different market verticals aims to tame this 'creature' and even domesticate to use it as a tool to make predictions and find the most critical and actionable items of intelligence.

Increasingly, this must be accomplished in near-real time and the information must be packaged in a format capable of being shared with all other pertinent parties. The result is that sensor, computer and communication technologies are being strained beyond capacity to keep pace with current and future information management and analysis needs. ‘Big Data’ tools, techniques, and technologies seek to provide the means to analyze exploit and share conclusions drawn from this seemingly overwhelming information load.

Even Strategy should be Big in Big Data

Even Strategy should be Big in Big Data

Many business and technology professionals talk about "strategy"; they real do only tactics. Few, including veterans, do not yet digest the concept, and surely the implementation, of strategy.

This is not meant to be under estimating any industry veteran. Having built, grown and managed companies and business units of Fortune 50 and Fortune 500 companies, as well as the fastest growing companies in USA, I surely understand the industry pressure, and the pressures from investors and wall street. However, strategy for a corporation, big and small, is as important as breathing for a living being.

Strategy is not a "one word" concept, as many assume to be. Strategy has many facets. Strategic thinking needs you to have a closet full of thinking caps in your intellectual closet; the right one should be chosen from many in your closet, to best suit the occasion, to suit the corporation's size, type of industry, the portfolio of products and services, the country or geography, purpose at hand, the competitive environment, the economy and market.

To use another metaphor, strategy is just not a single stick you keep using to beat up in an occasion or situation; it is really like a large tree, with various branches, which you may think of as alternatives or options, based on the task at hand. Please also imagine this tree to adapt or morph as the industry and market driving factors change; imagine the tree to sprout new branches often.

Big Data is an impending phenomenon of unprecedented scale, growth and impact on the different beneficiaries: the technology, platform, tools and other products;  the hardware, software and systems companies; the various types of services companies; the new entrant companies; the entrepreneurial hot shots; the professionals, both the new kids on the block and "want to be" big data professionals; the consumers (C), businesses (B) and the governments (G).

Big Data demands Big Thinking; it demands different kind of thinking; it surely demands very fast thinking.

Most companies, big, small, start up and some even very large, and professionals know and feel that Big Data is a Big Opportunity, however, are not at all prepared to face the GIGANTIC Big Data wave that will surely overwhelm most of them. Get overwhelmed or get prepared to ride this gigantic wave.

Data will be an important currency in all aspects of our life and for the companies; the only difference this time around is that the data currency is measured in terra, peta, exa and zetta bytes and $ in millions and billions to digest this size of data explosion. The most important aspect of the business in the upcoming years and decades is how efficiently and economically you can convert the data currency to the $ currency.

The futurist in me says:

  • The data currency will have banks, trading, bartering and swaps.
  • The data currency will be local, regional, national and international, and in fact, tear the barriers, also "tunnel" though the barriers, of the current international money and gold currency walls.
  • Big Data owners, digesting technology and services companies, trainers, data traders and banks are all going to rule this now world of big data.
  • Whoever very quickly grabs the big data land (the big data land grabbers) will be kings and emperors of this new big data universe.
  • We all know what kings and emperors have done in history: They fight with each other, occupy others' territories and create bloodshed.
  • The kings and emperors fighting with each other, occupying each other and the blood shed is a metaphor for: "Big" Competition, Mergers and Acquisitions, Consolidations and Employee Lay-offs.
  • We as people, the universal citizens of the Big Data universe, generate data to contribute to the big data volumes, be targets and beneficiaries (the dichotomous roles) that the product and services companies "love", at the same time cry and scream about our privacy and security.
  • Talking about privacy and security, this is going to be a big business opportunity.
  • Even the state and national level elections, like the upcoming US presidential elections will be a hot bed of big data industry, with the presidential candidates carrying a mobile device to know what the people are thinking about them and accordingly give speeches and tweets with message bytes.
  • The media will use all this big data intelligence in their various broadcast and even exploiting the power of your mobile devices, which in turn modulate your "data creation behavior"; a new paradigm in "feedback loop" phenomenon of the big data.


I will be writing in detail about the astute practice of strategy and including the bag of tricks and techniques.

My purpose of this blog is to make all of realize that Big Data players need a paradigm shift in its strategy, to instill in your mind and also in your guts that the tactical thinking is sneaking into your heads, while you believe that you are thinking strategically.

Any of you may contact me for strategy. I am also a believer in tactics, that I have practiced in the past decades running companies.
