The document discusses EDF's use of a data lake and data lab to optimize operations and safety at their nuclear power plants. It describes how EDF is building a Hadoop-based data lake called ESPADON to store sensor and operational data from their 59 nuclear plants. They are developing data science algorithms to analyze the data from the whole fleet to improve maintenance and operations. EDF is also creating a data lab team and architecture to develop analytics and quantify the value of these initiatives.
