Wind and Solar Farms Site Selection Using Geographical Information System (GIS) Based on Multi Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) Methods: A Case Study for East Azerbaijan
Economic and industrial development raise the demand for energy. Renewable energies have replaced fossil fuels. because the fossil fuels emission greenhouse gases and damage the environment. The sitting of renewable power plants is of great importance because there is a direct relationship between the production efficiency and the location of the renewable power plant. In this paper, using of multi criteria decision making (MCDM) methods a suitable location for the construction of a renewable power plant is proposed. Prioritization map of the hybrid power plant was prepared using AHP, VICORE and TOPSIS. The final map is obtained of the overlap of other maps.
