I'm thinking that would be "conocimiento"—"knowledge."

From my dictionary

El saber no ocupa lugar - You can never know too much

i like that, "knowledge takes no space". It's a nice proverb - HackerKing, Nov 2, 2013

The noun form of "saber" is the same word, "saber". It means "knowledge". The verb "poder" means, generally, "to be able to". There is also a noun form of "poder" which means "power". In this regard, Spanish and English are alike in that both languages use words as both nouns and verbs.

Sabiduría - knowledge, wisdom. El hombre aventaja a los demás en sabiduría.

I hope it would help if I suggest a related noun:

Sabio (masc)/sabia (fem) = learned, wise person
