Abstract

Tidal power generation, being one of the earliest and largest developed new energy technologies, has evolved into a mature and increasingly competitive source of energy. This article delves into the evaluation of tidal energy's socioeconomic impact, establishing a connection between its environmental benefits and regional economic development. The focus is on marine economic efficiency, and the super-efficiency DEA model is employed to gauge this efficiency. The study conducts a thorough analysis of the green ocean economic efficiency in three major regions, introducing the Malmquist efficiency index for a comprehensive understanding of changing trends. Utilizing an economic effect model, the research explores the contribution of tidal energy development to regional economic growth, delving into industry-related effects. Through these analyses, we aim to provide a clearer and more comprehensive insight into the positive influence of tidal energy on regional socioeconomics. This understanding is pivotal for guiding sustainable tidal energy development and formulating relevant policies.
