This thesis describes the risk management for power generation enterprises in detail according to the risk-management processes on the basis of introduction to the theoretical framework of risk management. Risk management isn't just about being compliant. It affects broader business strategy including operations, finance, customers, and overall brand and reputation. The stakes are. . Every element of an organization's risk management program should align to ensure resilience and efficiency, just as every power line, transformer, and substation must work together to keep the lights on. The importance of managing risks in electric power systems cannot be overstated, as unmanaged risks. . For power plant managers, conducting regular and thorough risk assessments is not only a regulatory requirement but also a strategic necessity to protect assets, ensure employee safety, and maintain continuous production.
