Research on Sustainability Evaluation of China’s Coal Supply Chain from the Perspective of Dual Circulation New Development Pattern

Abstract

The critical strategic plan of the new dual circulation development pattern provides new strategic opportunities for the modernization of China’s coal supply chain. This paper presents new ideas for the sustainable development of the coal supply chain. To significantly improve the systematic and scientific evaluation of the sustainable development of China’s coal supply chain under the background of “dual circulation”, a sustainability evaluation index system for the coal supply chain is proposed, which contains five dimensions. Furthermore, an evaluation model is built based on multi-granularity unbalanced decision-making and TOPSIS theory. On this basis, an empirical study was carried out using a coal supply chain in China as an example, and scientific and effective development countermeasures are presented, which effectively promote new development and build unique competitive advantages for the energy industry.
