This study focuses on the most prevalent issues faced by various local regions in their promotion and application of shore power, proposes a set of evaluation methods tailoredfor local governments in the evaluation of promotion and application from five perspectives: construction and utilization of shore power facilities, institutional mechanisms, incentive policies and regulatory framework as well as a comprehensive evaluation of shore power effectivenessin Shenzhen as a case study. Results demonstrate that theevaluation method can fully reflect the effectiveness of local governments in their promotion of shore power, identify existing issues and opportunities for improvement, and may provide a baseline for the next-phase promotion of regional shore power facilities.
