“…Indicators like that can help to identify the weaknesses in the field of energy management and reveal possibilities to boost efficiency and effectiveness of energy consumption. Therefore, it is necessary to identify the relevant KPIs for the considered target, depending on the purpose of the investigation [45]. With the given objective of the energy transformation KPIs and especially energy-related-KPIs can be a supportive tool to reach those targets.…”

More than 150 municipal utilities (so-called Stadtwerke) were established in Germany from the beginning of the millennium, bringing the total number of Stadtwerke currently established within the country to approximately 900. With responsibility for more than half of the supply of electricity, gas and heat in Germany, these Stadtwerke play a central role in the transformation of the energy sector, or Energiewende. In addition, due to their local and regional ties, Stadtwerke have a particular role to play in energy politics, the economy and across society. This article focuses on the motives behind, and grounds for, the current wave of newly established Stadtwerke. Further, it discusses the factors that were critical to the successful formation of new Stadtwerke in recent years. The results of our survey indicate that the establishment of municipal Stadtwerke is a suitable measure to implement the energy transition at the local level, whereby the concept of public value has a high level of importance for the local decision-makers. Collaboration and cooperation, as well as a resilience-oriented strategy, are important success factors for new Stadtwerke.

“…The eco-efficiency concept developed by the WBCSD and OECD offers a framework that is flexible enough to be widely applied and easily interpreted across a variety of industries, while providing a common set of indicators. Eco-efficiency is defined as (Verfaillie and Bidwell, 2000) 20 :…”

Eco‐industrial parks (EIPs) is a complex system, composed of a variety of companies with embedded ties. Members in EIPs shape the “Eco‐Industrial Chain Network,” the industrial coupling symbiosis network (ICSN) system, in which businesses cooperate with each other and share the mutual benefits at the same time. In order to study the development levels of the ICSN system in EIPs, this paper uses the grey relational analysis (GRA) method to evaluate the eco‐efficiency of coupling and symbiosis network in EIPs in oil and gas resource‐based cities. The results show that the overall level of eco‐efficiency and the stability of ICSN could be reflected through the application of the economic, environmental, and the dematerialized cycle and network structure relational analysis. Furthermore, it confirms the feasibility and applicability of the evaluation model and the evaluation indicator system.
