Under the “dual carbon” goals

it is imperative to incorporate carbon emissions-related factors into research of power grid risk assessment to meet the green transformation needs of the power grid. Therefore

this paper conducts a study on the risk assessment of carbon emissions changes in regional power grids based on dynamic carbon emission factors

aiming to quantitatively analyze the impact of random disturbances such as equipment failures or fluctuations in renewable energy generation on the carbon emission intensity of regional power grids. First

carbon emission change risk indicators are constructed from three dimensions: the probability

frequency

and magnitude of carbon emission changes. Second

a dynamic carbon emission factor calculation model is proposed to reflect the spatiotemporal change of carbon emissions in the regional power grid

considering output of different types of generators and the components of inter-area power transmission. Finally

with the premise of ensuring safe and stable operation of power grid

a quantitative assessment model for carbon emission change risks is proposed under the objective of minimizing the electricity loss. The sampling convergence conditions of the model are also derived. The results from the MRTS79 case study demonstrate the proposed method can effectively quantify and analyze the risk of carbon emissions changes in regional power grids

validating the effectiveness of the proposed model.
