Currently, the integration of distributed power supply into the power grid is steadily increasing. The grid’s carrying capacity serves as a crucial metric for evaluating the grid’s resilience following the widespread integration of distributed power supply. During typhoon conditions, if the power grid experiences line breakage and load loss faults, the grid’s framework is altered, rendering the conventional carrying capacity assessment method obsolete. This study introduces a method for assessing the risk of line carrying capacity and an index for line overload probability under typhoon conditions, integrating line and transformer capacity constraints to evaluate the grid’s carrying capacity risk. The probability of line failure is modeled during typhoon events, and a modified IEEE39 node example is employed to simulate a high-penetration grid in a typhoon scenario. Addressing the issue of inadequate intraday dispatch capability under insufficient carrying capacity, we propose a multi-timescale dispatch method and derive the optimal grid dispatch strategy using the viscous bacteria algorithm. The efficacy of the multi-timescale dispatch strategy in addressing the grid’s carrying capacity risk is validated through simulation, while the economic cost of mitigating the grid’s carrying capacity risk and the line overload probability is assessed across varying parameter values.
