Abstract:According to the interview material of staff in different power transmission projects, taking account of practical experience of different voltage levels, the paper identifies the environmental risk factors of power transmission projects by grounded theory. The calculation method is put forward based on vulnerability theory to assess the 48 risk factors, so as to identify the key risk factors. The paper proposes that it is vital to improve the awareness of environmental risk hazard, to improve the risk management mechanism, and to strengthen environmental risk education, which supports the risk management of power transmission projects theoretically.
