This paper applies the conventional DEA model and super-efficiency analysis in measuring the efficiency of an electricity distribution utility which involves 12 power lines as DMUs. The input indicators considered are purchased electricity supply and the total length of power lines, while electricity consumed, the number of consumers, and total power losses are the output indicators. The results revealed that 4 out of the 12 power lines are inefficient and thus need to be improved. The model provided a guideline how these inefficiencies may be addressed by means of benchmarking. © 2018, Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature.
