An AHP/DEA hybrid model for measuring the relative efficiency of energy efficiency technologies

Due to the expiration of the national energy and resources plan, established in 1997, and Korean government needs to build a new one coping with 10 years from 2006 through 2015 strategically. In this paper, we prioritize the relative weights of energy technologies in the sector of the national energy efficiency plan by using the AHP/DEA hybrid model, which is one of the multi-criteria decision making (MCDM) method composed of the analytic hierarchy process and data envelopment analysis. We suggest a scientific procedure to measure the relative efficiency and priorities of energy efficiency technologies as decision maker and energy policy makers make a national decision and energy policy.
