The National Energy Administration has issued the "14th Five-Year Plan" Action Plan for Electric Power Safety Production. It mentions strengthening "Artificial Intelligence +" safety governance, innovating high-precision fault prediction and health management methods for equipment, promoting the integration of artificial intelligence technology into intelligent safety tools, and researching decision-making technology for electric power safety production based on large AI models. It calls for increased independent research and development of key electric power equipment, strengthening the research and development of new protection materials, establishing a special plan for the technical tackling of core components of electric power equipment, and promoting breakthroughs in key technologies such as electric power chips and ultra-high voltage components. It also advocates for innovation in safety and quality control technology for electric power construction projects, researching the establishment of an intelligent supervision system for electric power construction projects, and using artificial intelligence, big data, and other means to enhance the non-on-site supervision and quality oversight of key electric power projects.
