INTRODUCTION: Earthquake-induced disturbances require fast, standardized fault reports to support regional power-grid emergency response.
OBJECTIVES: To automate report drafting while improving terminology, structure, and traceability compared with manual writing and simple template filling.
METHODS: We design a workflow that combines slot filling, metadata-driven image proxy summarization, and controlled prompt-driven paragraph generation, then assembles outputs into a standardized report template and software system.
RESULTS: On public earthquake and outage datasets, the proposed method outperforms baseline template filling (BLEU-4 1.00 vs 0.37, ROUGE-L 0.90 vs 0.50, BERTScore 0.93 vs 0.85, field coverage 1.00 vs 0.75) and reduces end-to-end report production from ~180 min (manual) to 2 min 15 s.
CONCLUSION: The system enables reliable, high-efficiency fault report generation for earthquake emergency response in regional power grids, with clear potential for deployment.
