Under the framework of the “dual-carbon” goals of China (“carbon peak” by 2030 and “carbon neutrality” by 2060), the escalating complexity of emerging power systems presents significant challenges to safety governance. Traditional management models are now confronting bottlenecks, notably in knowledge inheritance breakdown and lagging risk prevention and control. This paper explores the application of large AI models in safety and emergency management in the power industry. Through core capabilities—such as natural language processing (NLP), knowledge reasoning, multimodal interaction, and auxiliary decision making—it achieves full-process optimization from data fusion to intelligent decision making. The study, anchored by 18 cases across five core scenarios, identifies three-dimensional challenges (including “soft”—dimension computing power, algorithm, and data bottlenecks; “hard”—dimension inspection equipment and wearable device constraints; and “risk”—dimension responsibility ambiguity, data bias accumulation, and model “hallucination” risks). It further outlines future directions for large-AI-model application innovation in power industry safety and management from a four-pronged outlook, covering technology, computing power, management, and macro-level perspectives. This work aims to provide theoretical and practical guidance for the industry’s shift from “passive response” to “intelligent proactive prevention”, leveraging quantified scenario-case analysis.
