Abstract

In the context of ecological civilization construction (ECC) and energy revolution strategy, there are many studies on ECC or electric power green development (EPGD). However, EPGD and ECC influence each other and are closely related, and there are few studies on the development relationship of EPGD and ECC. Therefore, this paper aims to study the coupling coordination relationship between EPGD and ECC to make them develop in harmony. Firstly, an evaluation index system of EPGD and ECC for their coupling coordination relationship is proposed. Then, this paper combines the coupling coordination degree model (CCDM), improved analytic hierarchy process (AHP) based on cloud model, and regression model to propose a coupling coordination relationship analysis model for EPGD and ECC. The improved AHP based on cloud model can fully reflect the will of decision-makers and effectively deal with the ambiguity and randomness of weight judgment. Finally, this paper conducts an empirical study on Beijing and verifies the applicability of the model proposed in this study. Policy recommendations to promote EPGD and ECC are proposed based on weight analysis, coupling coordination degree (CCD) analysis and regression analysis. This paper provides tools for the study on policies related to power development and ecological civilization.

Summary

Introduction

The rapid economic development of China has brought negative effects on resources, environment, habitat and other aspects. Due to increasing ecological pressure, the Chinese government has successively put forward two national strategies: ecological civilization construction (ECC) and energy revolution. Establishing the relationship between the two strategic systems to promote ecological civilization and energy transformation is beneficial to facilitating the comprehensive green and sustainable development of China. From its formal proposal in 2007 to its inclusion in the Constitution in 2018, the ECC is increasingly important in national development and governance system. ECC is to promote economic and social development, premised on protecting or improving the ecological environment [1]. The ecosystem can reach a balanced state of sustainable development [3]. ECC is an important task for China’s sustainable development
