Abstract :
This paper proposes a procedure and method for assessing the operation performance of distribution utilities which is the hierarchical yardstick competition method. The hierarchical analysis of factors reflecting the operation situation of distribution utilities is inosculated in the overall goals, the criteria layer and the factor layer by employing the analytic hierarchy process. The judgment matrix and data envelopment analysis are used to gain the weights and performance factor of assessment criteria in the criteria layer and factor layer respectively. An example is provided to clarify the method suggested by this paper.
