- The Smart Grids BD (SGBD) Spoke builds an action-oriented organization focused on developing the fundamental framework for BD integration and knowledge extraction for power system applications.
- It works with the South BD Hub on creating a stakeholder community capable of converting BD in smart grids, which are ubiquitous but largely unexploited for its transformational operational potential. New knowledge and solutions will offer major improvements in smart grid operation, e.g., power generation and distribution, renewable energy, and smart grid user necessities, such as critical infrastructures, smart cities, and transportation.
