“…There also exists a large difference between the two kinds of score rankings. The DEA is essentially a descriptive tool that allows the analysis of the observed technology with deterministic but nonparametric frontiers where no statistical noise or random disturbance for the data is allowed (Kneip and Simar, 1996;Monchuk et al, 2010). However, neither output elasticity of the inputs 18 nor inference is available from DEA.…”

Abstract:This paper employs a fully nonparametric stochastic frontier model with time and individual effects to study technical efficiency in China's post-reform economy. The panel data cover China's thirty provinces for the period of 1985-2008. The empirical results show that the average output elasticity of labor is larger than the other two inputs of capital and human capital. Based on the specified inefficiency Tobit model, the factor analysis on technical efficiency shows that the time effects of technical efficiency in China's post-reform economy are significantly contingent on the factors. There exists significant regional differences in technical efficiency in China's economic development, and a number of policy implications can be drawn.

“…Measurement model can be built to study its spatial heterogeneity, as well as by temporal differences. Many scholars have probed into the path of agricultural water environmental improvement from the perspective of environmental efficiency [15,17,18], but seldom references can be found to study the environmental efficiency in WTE field. In fact, wasteto-energy environmental efficiency (WTEEE) can be better improved with the coordinated development of economy and environment.…”

ABSTRACT:The accelerating urbanization and improvement of living standards have greatly increased the municipal solid waste (MSW) generation in China. Public private partnership (PPP) widely used in the field of waste-to-energy (WTE) industry can decrease the volume of MSW, generate power and address the serious environmental problems caused by MSW. The advantage of PPP model can be expressed in its inherent incentive, expanding product quality, improving capacity utilization, saving transaction costs, improving efficiency of WTE industry. We collect data of municipal solid waste disposal fee from 69 PPP WTe projects of 231 operating projects, covering 30% of all PPP WTe operating projects in 29 provinces from 1999-2016, the spatial-temporal model is built to analyze the waste-to-energy environmental efficiency in PPP waste-toenergy industry.

“…Lilienfeld and Asmild (2007) in their studies have used DEA technique to determine the influence of labor, fertilizers, irrigation, capital and seeds on yields of various crops. Other authors have determined the efficiency of meat and grain production based on inputs such as mechanization, labor, fertilizers, sown area (Monchuk, Chen & Bonaparte, 2010). Author whose data and work are the most appropriate to analysis applied in this paper is Vennesland (2005).…”

The most important aspect of any business is efficiency. The goal is to achieve a greater output results using less inputs, i.e. to maximize the use of available inputs. Numerous mathematical and statistical procedures, such as DEA technique (Data Envelopment Analysis), take an important place in the process of the effective management of the company and its business activities. This paper illustrated the application of
