Abstract

As global warming continues to intensify, typhoon disasters will more frequently occur in East and Southeast Asia, posing a high risk of causing large-scale power outages in the power system. To investigate the impact of typhoon disasters on high-voltage power grids, a comprehensive risk assessment method that integrates model-driven and data-driven approaches is proposed, which can predict power grid faults in advance and provide support for power grid operators to generate emergency dispatching plans. Firstly, by comparing actual loads with the design strengths of the transmission tower-line system and analyzing the geometric relationship between typhoon wind circles and the system, key variables, such as wind speed, longitude, latitude, and other pertinent factors, are screened. The Spearman correlation coefficient is employed to pinpoint the meteorological variables that exhibit a high degree of relevance, enhancing the accuracy and interpretability of our model. Secondly, addressing the lack of power grid fault samples, three data balancing methods—Borderline-SMOTE, ADASYN, and SMOTE-Tomek—are compared, with Borderline-SMOTE selected for its superior performance in enhancing the sample set. Additionally, a power grid failure risk assessment model is built based on Light Gradient Boosting Machine (LightGBM), and the Borderline-Smoothing Algorithm (BSA) is used for the modeling of power grid faults. The nonlinear mapping relationship between typhoon meteorological data and the power grid equipment failure rate is extracted through deep learning training. Subsequently, the Tree-structured Parzen Estimator (TPE) is leveraged to optimize the hyperparameters of the LightGBM model, thus enhancing its prediction accuracy. Finally, the actual power system data of a province in China under a strong typhoon are assessed, validating the proposed assessment method’s effectiveness.
