Abstract :
In order to offer more suggestions for the construction of energy transportation channels in China, we evaluated the existing system with the scale information entropy. By calculating the scale information entropy and the equilibrium degree with the data of annual investment in the fixed assets of energy transportation, we measured the scale and its rationality. Empirical results show that the partial information entropy Si still have certain rising space. We can improve the rationality of the energy transportation channels by improving the partial information entropy Si. This conclusion provides a quantitative basis for measuring the rationality of the construction scale of the energy transportation channels. And we can obtain more suggestions on the development strategy emphasis in future.
