Select a topic to dive deeper, then explore the specific findings from the research, rebuilt as interactive, enterprise-focused modules.
Artificial Intelligence (AI), encompassing machine learning, deep learning, and computer vision, has made remarkable strides, particularly through deep learning, enabling intelligent transformation across various domains. In the power sector, AI leverages powerful data processing and decision-making capabilities for operational risk control, extracting risk patterns from massive historical data and enhancing real-time on-site control.
In power enterprise operations, risk identification is the primary step, aiming to uncover potential risk patterns by analyzing historical operational data. Machine learning algorithms are crucial here, delving into accident event databases to extract influencing factors and build a comprehensive risk factor system. Deep learning architectures like the one shown in Figure 1 process multi-source data to identify and predict risks.
AI technologies offer distinct advantages in risk assessment and prediction. AI-based models can dynamically adjust risk levels using real-time data, providing flexible and accurate management strategies. This not only improves assessment accuracy but also supports intelligent decision-making, as highlighted in Table 1 which details key AI technologies and their roles.
AI deeply integrates into the six elements of safety control: task allocation, planning, risk assessment, tool/equipment management, on-site monitoring, and non-compliant operations identification. AI-driven systems optimize task assignments, create flexible plans, and conduct dynamic risk assessments. AI cameras and digital twin platforms monitor sites in real-time, detecting non-compliant actions and enhancing overall safety control efficiency.
Dynamic Risk Assessment Process
| Element | Before AI | After AI |
|---|---|---|
| Detection capability | High false/missed alarm rates from empirical rules/manual inspection | False/missed alarm rates reduced by 30-50% via deep learning |
| Decision support | Slow response based on human experience | Real-time risk scoring via model reasoning for rapid early warning |
| Real-time performance | Simple local processing; data delays of minutes to tens of minutes | Edge computing enables 8-channel video concurrency; responses within seconds |
| Overall solution | Single-point protection; no full-chain risk loop | End-to-end: data collection → AI analysis → early warning → emergency response → review |
