Abstract

Tidal power generation, being one of the earliest and largest developed new energy technologies, has evolved into a mature and increasingly competitive source of energy. This article delves into the evaluation of tidal energy's socioeconomic impact, establishing a connection between its environmental benefits and regional economic development. The focus is on marine economic efficiency, and the super-efficiency DEA model is employed to gauge this efficiency. The study conducts a thorough analysis of the green ocean economic efficiency in three major regions, introducing the Malmquist efficiency index for a comprehensive understanding of changing trends. Utilizing an economic effect model, the research explores the contribution of tidal energy development to regional economic growth, delving into industry-related effects. Through these analyses, we aim to provide a clearer and more comprehensive insight into the positive influence of tidal energy on regional socioeconomics. This understanding is pivotal for guiding sustainable tidal energy development and formulating relevant policies.

研究海洋潮汐能的环境效益及其对区域经济结构的影响

潮汐发电是开发最早、规模最大的新能源技术之一，现已发展成为一种成熟的、日益具有竞争力的能源。本文深入探讨了潮汐能的社会经济影响评估，在其环境效益和区域经济发展之间建立了联系。研究的重点是海洋经济效益，并采用超效率 DEA 模型来衡量这种效益。研究对三大区域的绿色海洋经济效率进行了深入分析，引入了 Malmquist 效率指数，以全面了解变化趋势。研究利用经济效应模型，探讨了潮汐能开发对区域经济增长的贡献，并深入研究了与产业相关的效应。通过这些分析，我们旨在更清晰、更全面地了解潮汐能对地区社会经济的积极影响。这种认识对于指导潮汐能的可持续发展和制定相关政策至关重要。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Sea Research is an international and multidisciplinary periodical on marine research, with an emphasis on the functioning of marine ecosystems in coastal and shelf seas, including intertidal, estuarine and brackish environments. As several subdisciplines add to this aim, manuscripts are welcome from the fields of marine biology, marine chemistry, marine sedimentology and physical oceanography, provided they add to the understanding of ecosystem processes.
