Abstract:

In the current international pattern characterized by significant changes, adaptations and reorganization, energy issues are no longer simply matters of supply or development, but a comprehensive consideration involving national security and international strategy. However, the recent years' local disparities in energy supply and demand, coupled with electricity shortages in China's energy market, have laid bare the deficiencies in China's coal management. At present, these shortcomings primarily manifest in three key areas: firstly, as a large thermal power generation country, China's electric coal supply risk prevention awareness and response ability is insufficient; secondly, the electric coal stockpile reserve mechanism is not perfect; thirdly, there is a deficiency in suitable risk assessment models. Therefore, to improve China's risk control level in electric coal risk control, especially in electric coal inventory, in addition to strengthening the risk prevention awareness, appropriate risk assessment models should also be constructed and the mechanism for electric coal inventory reserve should be improved. Therefore, the thermal power plant is taken as the research object in this paper, and the risk assessment indexes are established considers the risk factors affecting the management of electric coal inventory from three levels of macro-environment (policy, economy, natural environment and market), meso-environment (information transmission and enterprise cooperation) and micro-environment (business operation and coal yard condition). On this basis, by analyzing the advantages and disadvantages of the SVM assessment model, the regularization parameter λ is introduced to prevent the overfitting problem, and the tuna swarm optimization algorithm(TSO)is used to optimize the model regularization parameterλ, the kernel function parameter σ and other related parameters, and thus the risk combination evaluation model of the tuna swarm optimization algorithm and the least-squares support vector machine (TSO-LS-SVM) is proposed. Finally, the proposed model is applied to 200 electric coal enterprises in China to analyze the examples in the context of reality, and the specific research results are as follows. (1)The indicators are selected from four aspects considering the digitalization background: information effectiveness, information sharing degree, information symmetry and vulnerability of information transmission mechanism, and a combination of quantitative and qualitative methods is used to construct the inventory risk assessment index system of electric coal enterprises. (2) The applicability of the proposed TSO-LS-SVM model in the assessment of electric coal inventory risk is verified through case analysis. The superiority of the proposed method is verified by comparing TSO, whale optimization algorithm (WOA) and particle swarm optimization (PSO), for it has faster convergence speed, higher accuracy, smaller mean square error, and the best performance in the assessment of coal inventory risk. (3) Sensitivity analysis is conducted on risk factors, and it is found that the top five risk indicators are coal loss, policy opportunities, facility construction, employee quality and information transmission, providing scientific guidance and basis for the proposal of electric coal risk control strategy. Based on the conclusions above, certain management insights are provided for enhancing the risk management and control level of electric coal enterprises, improving the electric coal stockpile reserve mechanism, and ensuring the stable supply of energy.
