Abstract
This study provides an in-depth evaluation of the potential for hybrid solar-wind renewable energy systems in a specific region, emphasizing the influence of geographical and environmental factors on the feasibility of renewable energy development. Using a combination of Geographic Information Systems, the Best-Worst Method, and Fuzzy Logic, the research identifies the most suitable areas for renewable energy development. The results indicated that 14% of the region is highly suitable for wind energy projects, while 28% shows moderate potential for solar energy harvesting, and only 5% of the area is deemed unsuitable for hybrid systems, reflecting the region strong renewable energy potential. However, 34% of the area has limited suitability, highlighting suboptimal conditions for energy production, and 45% is moderately suitable, suggesting a wide range of renewable energy opportunities. Geotechnically, 16% of the terrain is classified as ideal for hybrid systems, marking it as a prime zone for integrating solar and wind technologies. Environmentally, challenges exist in 23% of the area due to unsuitability, while zones with limited and moderate environmental suitability account for 36% and 33%, respectively. Careful environmental planning is necessary in these regions to maximize potential. Ultimately, only 8% of the area aligns perfectly with both environmental and renewable energy goals, demonstrating the complexity of balancing renewable energy development with environmental considerations.
