Description
Summary:The work analyzes the effect of low temperatures and other climatic factors on the accident rate and reliability of energy facilities. To represent the causes and analyze the consequences in emergency situations at power plants, descriptions of accidents that occurred in the Sakha Republic were collected and considered. For the analysis, examples are chosen that contain more complete descriptions of the various interrelated causes and consequences of accidents. It was revealed that the greatest number of accidents occurs in the period of low temperatures. High accidents in the summer months are also associated with the climatic features of the republic, mainly with accidents in the power supply system: seasonal melting of permafrost, floods, wildfires and in connection with this drop in power transmission lines, overruns and wire breaks due to storm wind and other.
