A Model for Evaluating Science and Technology Innovation Capability of Energy Internet Firms Based on Analytic Hierarchy Process and Fuzzy Comprehensive Evaluation

Rapid decarburization of energy sector is critical in the transition to global net zero, and building Energy Internet (EI) relies on a new technology revolution. In this paper, a model for evaluating science and technology (S&T) innovation capability of EI firms is introduced, in which Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) is used to determine the weight of each index and Fuzzy Comprehensive Evaluation (FCE) is adopted to obtain rational assessment results. Qualitative indicators and quantitative indicators, process indicators and outcome indicators, common features and individual characteristics, are effectively taken into account in the assessment process by the full combination and effective application of AHP and FCE. Finally, seven EI firms were investigated as case studies, and the viability of the suggested model are successfully validated.
