Development and prospect of monitoring and prevention methods of icing disaster in China power grid

Icing disaster is one of the most serious threats to power grid security in China. This article provides a brief glance current China's monitoring and prevention methods icing (MPI) development status. Despite late start, research on MPI have made outstanding achievements, including formation mechanism causing ice disaster, key technologies characteristics, anti/de-icing approaches application. It apparent that Chinese scientists engineers confronted worldwide problem anti/de-icing, put forward comprehensive solution, which plays more critical role reduction during past 15 years. The states devices been applied successively severe issues. These achievements are leading world application MPI. However, it only at extreme snow conditions can test verify whether perfect or not. And authors discovered limitations existing achievements. also discusses overall trends areas technological technical breakthroughs scenarios etc. discussions serve as references for MPI's future advancement its ever-expanding applications.
