ABSTRACT
The need for energy in the
world has recently increased as a result of increasing population, global
growth and industrialization. The fact that the increasing energy need cannot
be fully met with the existing fossil-sourced reserves, and the increase in environmental
awareness and energy supply security shows that the use of renewable energy
sources is very important in Turkey as well as in the rest of the world. In
this study, a new multi-criteria decision making (TAOV MAUT) method is proposed
by combining Multi-Attribute Theory of Utility (MAUT) and Total Area Based on
Vertical Vectors (TAOV). Using this proposed method, the most useful renewable
energy source for Turkey has been tried to be determined. As a result of the
literature study conducted for the evaluation of renewable energy source
alternatives that can be used in our country, the most important criteria that
can affect the decision are; productivity, construction time, cost, government
incentives, economic life, foreign dependency, employment opportunities, social
acceptance, space requirement and greenhouse gas emissions. As a result of the
study, Turkey's most useful renewable energy sources are respectively;
hydroelectric, wind, solar, biomass and geothermal energy sources have been identified.
