Purpose This paper aims to build a scientific evaluation index system for regional low-carbon circular economic development. Taking Sichuan Province as the empirical research object, the paper evaluates its low-carbon circular economy (LCCE) development level and proposes policy recommendations for climate change improvement based on the evaluation results. Design/methodology/approach This paper, first, built an evaluation index system with 30 indicators within six subsystems, namely, economic development, social progress, energy consumption, low-carbon emissions, carbon sink capacity and environmental carrying capacity. Second, develop an “entropy weight-grey correlation” evaluation method. Finally, from a practical point of view, measure the development level of LCCE in Sichuan Province, China, from 2008 to 2018. Findings It was found that Sichuan LCCE development had a general downward trend from 2008 to 2012 and a steady upward trend from 2012 to 2018; however, the overall level was low. The main factors affecting the LCCE development are lagging energy consumption and environmental carrying capacity subsystem developments. Research limitations/implications This paper puts forward relevant suggestions for improving the development of a low-carbon economy and climate change for the reference of policymakers. Originality/value This paper built an evaluation index system with 30 indicators for regional low carbon circular economic development. The evaluation method of “entropy weight-grey correlation” is used to measure the development level of regional LCCE in Sichuan Province, China.

Supplier management is an important part of supply chain management, combined with the feature of the power industry, the paper design supplier comprehensive evaluation system of power grid enterprises, and put forward comprehensive green degree into supplier evaluation index system to conform to the national grid company production requirements. Firstly, according to the index system, the analytic hierarchy process evaluation method to draw the initial weights, secondly, the modification of entropy weight method to reduce the subjective factor influence on the evaluation results by AHP , finally, an example is given to demonstrate the feasibility of the evaluation index system for the power grid enterprise, it aslo provides a theoretical basis for decision-makers during the vendor selection.

Based on four categories of indexes including intensity indexes, system indexes, supporting indexes and characteristic indexes, this paper combines with actual characteristics of Chinese ports, discusses about and builds a green and low-carbon port evaluation index system, and puts forward a set of simple and practical evaluation methods and standards. With case study of Guangzhou Port, this paper also conducts empirical evaluation of current development level in 2013 and planning level in 2020 respectively, and verifies scientific validity of the index system.

Based on both at home and abroad energy sustainable development ,enterprise energy evaluation index system research and low carbon economic background, this thesis proposed the strategy thought of full process of energy-saving and emission-reduction, selected DEA evaluation method to achieve efficiency monitoring, followed the application steps of DEA evaluation method and built the evaluation index system for energy-saving and emission-reduction which contained inputs and outputs aspects of 8 items specific indicators. The thesis took Dalian as an example to discuss the running situation of energy-saving and emission-reduction strategy within each year and propose that only we strive to achieve industry upgrade in the future, develop circular economy and control the amount of energy input.

Based on the principles of scientific, systematic, practicality, hierarchy, the paper constructs the evaluation index system of the Possibility of Low-carbon Economic Development, and determines the assessment of evaluation indexes applying the analytic hierarchy process (AHP), and builds the multi-objective linear weighted evaluation function model. Taking the Province of Zhejiang for example, the Possibility of Low-carbon Economic Development was evaluated. The results can be summarized as follows: The construction the evaluation index system of the Possibility of Low-carbon Economic Development is scientific and has a certain operability; The development of low-carbon economy in Zhejiang Province is potential, and the comprehensive evaluation has 4 levels; From certain aspects,such as the establishment and improvement of the low-carbon economy policy system,management system for carbon emissions and carbon exchanges,the introduction of foreign advanced low-carbon technologies,the promotion of low-carbon consumption and low-carbon lifestyle, measures can be taken to promote the development of a low- carbon economy in Zhejiang Province.

Low carbon economy is a major innovation in mode of development, human economic life consumption mode, technology innovation and policy measures as support, the establishment of a kind of low energy consumption, low pollution, low emission and high efficiency, high efficiency, high efficiency and low carbon industry chain, so as to realize the economic development pattern of low carbonization, human life consumption low carbonization of the new mode of economic development. In order to promote the development of low carbon economy, starting from the connotation of low carbon economy and the perspective of industry chain path, establishment principle of the evaluation index system of low carbon economy, low carbon economy is constructed evaluation index system.

Investment in transportation infrastructure is bound to promote the economic development . Coordinated development of transport and economy is the best state. This paper discusses the principle of coordinated development between traffic and economy, build evaluation index system of transport and economy development, use entropy weight method to calculate the composite score, draw traffic - economy coordination degree model. Then set Huanggang City of Hubei province example to illustrate the usefulness of the model.

Evaluation index system of traffic simulation is very important to compare the difference of several cases, which contributes to the advance of traffic simulation models and technologies. Under the concept of low-carbon, the paper establishes evaluation index system of traffic simulation. Firstly, the paper analyzes the requirements of the evaluation index system of traffic simulation from two aspects which are the application characteristics and the application under the concept of low-carbon of traffic simulation models and technologies. On the basis of analysis above, it establishes the evaluation index system of traffic simulation which concludes road network structure index, traffic operation state index, traffic environment index and traffic safety index. It proposes the application rules of evaluation index system. Then, it proposes the two-level combined evaluation method for calculating weights on the basis of comparative analysis about two methods, which are the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) method and entropy method. Finally, it applies the proposed evaluation system to calculate the comprehensive index values of two transit operation cases of Beijing Olympic Games Opening Ceremony audience evacuation. It is shown that evaluation index system of traffic simulation is practicable and effective.

A low-carbon evaluation index system for container terminals is proposed on the basis of their characteristics and the concept of low-carbon port. This system takes quantitative indexes as the core, supplemented by qualitative ones. The weight of each index is determined by AHP, and then a fuzzy comprehensive evaluation model is established according to the AHP-fuzzy comprehensive evaluation method. Finally, the proposed model is applied to a certain region of a container terminal, and the result indicates that the proposed evaluation index system and evaluation model can provide a reference for the low-carbon level evaluation of container terminals.
