AHP study on energy indicators system for sustainable development of Henan province

Analytic Hierarchy Process is an approach to decision making that involves structuring multiple choice criteria into a hierarchy, assessing the relative importance of these criteria, comparing alternatives for each criterion, and determining an overall ranking of the alternatives. This paper applies AHP for evaluating the energy indicators system for sustainable development. A case applied for Henan province is studied. All weight coefficients for energy indicators system are gotten from an investigation. Moreover, the score methodology by MATLAB software is also used for getting the energy indicators´ weight scores. The results show that there are four indicators, which are the key indicators influencing sustainable development of energy for Henan province.
