“…The AHP method is an effective system analysis method put forward by Saaty in the 1970s; it is a mature subjective weighting method [57], but is vulnerable to the subjective limitation of expert opinion. The entropy weight method is a measure of the uncertainty of a system state [58].…”

The complex power system and trading environment in China has led to higher requirements for the efficient and stable operation of the electricity market. With the continuous advancement of power system reforms, regular evaluation of the operation of the market can help us grasp its status and trends, which is of great significance for ensuring its sustainable development. In order to effectively evaluate the current operational status of the electricity market, the concept of operation health degree of power market (OHDPM) is proposed to measure whether the operation is safe, efficient, and sustainable. This paper establishes an improved model framework based on the matter-element extension theory for evaluation. In order to effectively avoid information distortion and loss in the evaluation process, this paper combines the cloud model, matter element extension theory, ideal point method (IPM), and cloud entropy optimization algorithm to deal with this problem. The matter-element extension cloud model (MEECM) can clearly represent the characteristics of the object to be evaluated. IPM is used to determine the weight of the index. For the improved matter-element extension model, the traditional rules of “3En” and “50% relevance” are taken into account, and the method of solving the entropy is optimized. Then, for the correlation degree between the object to be evaluated and the graded normal cloud, the weight vector solved by the IPM is used to weigh the cloud correlation degree, which can give a reliable evaluation result. The health evaluation index system of power market operation includes 16 sub-indicators in five categories: supply side, demand side, coordinated operation, market security, and sustainable development. In the empirical analysis, the OHDPM situation in Y Province was evaluated in May 2019. The results prove that the OHDPM level is medium, and the importance and health level of each index are given. The reliability of the power system, transaction price stability, Lerner index, residual proportion of producers, and user satisfaction have a greater impact on the health status. Finally, in order to verify the validity and stability of the model, different methods are used to evaluate the evaluation objects, and the advantages of OHDPM evaluation based on the model framework proposed in this paper are proven.

“… Karatayev et al (2016) also used a hierarchy model to analyse existing barriers to renewable energy development. Ahmad et al (2017) discussed the potential of the nuclear industry for electricity generation in long-term perspectives. Assembayeva et al (2018) indicated the economic model of the power generation sector in Kazakhstan.…”

In the international arena, it is often the case that in countries which largely depend on foreign resources, energy security, and its key components i.e. security of energy supply, environment, technology, geopolitical and economic factors, is a subject of concern. However, due to the abundance of fossil fuel resources in resource-rich exporting nations, there is a lack of understanding of the risks around energy security and accordingly often a policy vacuum. Conceptualising energy security from different geopolitical vantage points will allow future concerns around energy supply security, climate change, and regional economic crises to be evaluated. By using policy documents and developing a time series approach and normalized z-scores for a range of comparable metrics this article compares the energy security performance in six Caspian Sea countries individually and collectively. The article results show that Azerbaijan, Iran, Kazakhstan made significant progress in energy security since 1990, while energy security indicators in Russia, Uzbekistan, and Turkmenistan regressed. Iran has a leading position in energy security performance, while Uzbekistan and Turkmenistan have the lowest level of the energy security indicators compare to other region countries. This article both contributes a replicable definition of energy security that can be undertaken for other global regions, and begins to incorporate diversification and renewables development to enhance domestic energy security assessment.

“…At the start of 2011, before Fukushima, there were 441 NPPs in operation in 30 countries [9]. In 2016, 13 countries generated more than 30% of their total electricity from nuclear: France generated 77.7% of its electricity from nuclear power; Slovakia, 54%; Belgium, 54%; Ukraine, 47.2%; Hungary, 43.3%; Slovenia, 41.7%; Switzerland, 40.9%; Sweden, 39.6%; South Korea, 34.6%; Armenia, 33.2%; Czech Republic, 33.0%; Bulgaria, 32.6%; and Finland, 31.6% [10,11].…”

The adequacy of legal and regulatory framework relating to nuclear energy in Bangladesh has sparked many questions since the government took the formal decision to establish a nuclear power plant (NPP) at Rooppur. Consequently, the government has taken some measures to make a comprehensive and robust framework to ensure safe and secure nuclear energy production in the country. Even though these initiatives are highly appreciable, there remain certain regulatory concerns which this paper has attempted to reflect. Therefore, the objective of this paper is to showcase the recent legal and regulatory development of Bangladesh in relation to nuclear energy and to recommend further developments. The study was based on secondary sources where a doctrinal research was carried out to solve particular research questions. The safety and security of the Rooppur Nuclear Power Plant will frankly rely on how the government of Bangladesh plans and learns to implement, design, safeguard, exchange and further develop nuclear energy related knowledge and talent around the country.
