AHP-CRITIC-Based Collaborative Benefit Analysis of Regional Energy and Economic Development

Abstract

With the rapid changes in China's external economic environment, regional energy and economic problems have become increasingly prominent, and the research on the synergy between regional energy and economy has received more and more attention. From the perspective of system analysis, this paper constructs the index system of regional energy and regional economy and uses AHP-CRITIC (Analytic hierarchy process-Criteria Importance Through Intercriteria Correlation) method to calculate the coupling weight of indicators. The ordered model of the two subsystems of regional energy and economy and a composite system synergetic degree model are constructed based on synergy theory. Taking the relevant data on energy and economic development in Shanxi Province from 2010 to 2020 as samples, this research analyzes the synergetic development of regional energy and regional economy in Shanxi Province. The results show that the order degree of regional energy and economic subsystems in Shanxi Province shows an overall upward trend, but the synergy degree of the two systems shows a fluctuating trend of alternating increase and decrease. The stability of the development synergy effect is poor, and it is vulnerable to external environmental impacts. The endogenous synergistic development mechanism has not yet been formed.
