Decision problem for renewable energy planning in Turkey (Dataset). June 2019

This dataset compromises the decision problem for renewable energy planning in Turkey, adopted from the literature (Kahraman and Kaya 2010; Erdogan and Kaya 2015; Mousavi et al. 2017). The decision problem consists in evaluating and selecting the most appropriate renewable energy alternative for Turkey, and includes: Five alternatives (Hydro, Wind, Solar, Biomass, and Geothermal). Five dimensions fo criteria (Technological, Technical, Economical, Environmental, and Socio-politic), with 31 sub-criteria. Weights of criteria. Direction of criteria: "max" if the sub-criterion needs to be maximized ("bigger is better”) and "min" if it needs to be minimized (”smaller is better”). The dataset is used in the following paper: Ezbakhe, F. and Pérez-Foguet, A. (2019) Decision analysis for sustainable development: the case of renewable energy planning under uncertainty.
