Abstract

Renewable Energy Resources (RERs) are becoming increasingly significant for energy generation and will have vital for the future of humans, earth, and other living things. Due to the negative environmental impacts of fossil fuels, the authorities have taken RERs into account further. As a result, the present study extended a novel model using the Level Based Weight Assessment (LBWA) model based on in Interval Rough Number (IRN) extension of the Combinative Distance-Based Assessment (CODAS) method to cope with uncertain domain-based RER selection. A survey method using literature review and interview has been conducted to find and select appropriate perspectives and criteria; in this regard, the selected criteria were classified based on four groups, including socio-political, environmental, economic, and technical. Five sources of renewable energy, including solar energy, biomass energy, wind energy, hydropower energy, and geothermal energy, are evaluated in Turkey. The results of the extended IRN CODAS approach demonstrated that hydropower energy had the first rank among other sources, followed by solar energy, geothermal energy, biomass energy, and wind energy. In the application of the suggested model, the most suitable RER alternative is determined for Turkey. The results of this study showed the effectiveness, efficiency, and capability of the proposed methodology in the assessment of RERs.
