Abstract

Today's challenges towards a sustainable energy development in most European nations are crucial and highly complicated. We find the need to choose between several technologies generation, whose task is very laborious. Multiple factors that affect the success of a Renewable Energy (RE) project must be analyzed and taken into account. The evaluation and comparison of possible technologies generation is a multi criteria decision problem because not only economic aspects must be considered but also technical, environmental and social aspects. This paper presents the case for selecting the optimal technology for electricity generation of 5 MW for a region located in the southeast of Spain. As most of the real-world multicriteria decision-making (MCDM) problems contain a mixture of quantitative and qualitative criteria; therefore discrete MCDM methods are inadequate for handling this type of decision problems.
