Abstract

Abstract : Under the circumstances of global climate change, the El Nino event affects power grid icing by influencing the winter climate characteristics. The response characteristics of the massive power grid icing to El Nino should be of concern. Based on analysis and comparison, this study found that the overall level of response of Hunan power grid icing to El Nino was weak in 2015 winter. Areas with severe power grid icing of Hunan at 2015 El Nino period are mainly distributed at the midwest and southeastern mountainous and surrounding areas, but the maximum ice thickness extremum area range is shrinking. The maximum ice thickness at the El Nino winter enhancing (weakening) follows the trend of El Nino increasing (decreasing). Overall, the maximum ice thickness response characteristics of Hunan power grid at the El Nino period can be divided into four types. This analysis of power grid icing characteristics during El Nino period summarizes the response characteristics of icing and can guide the research of power grid icing and ant-icing countermeasures.
