Resumen
Nowadays, making strategic decisions in a sensitive sector such as energy planning that usually requiresallocating huge funds, time, and resources is a difficult task. For instance, prioritizing a set of Renewable EnergySources (RES) is a complex multi-dimensional task that typically involves a range of conflicting criteria featuringdifferent forms of evaluation data in an uncertain decision-making environment. This process is aligned withseveral sources that can be uncertain, including imprecise information, limited domain knowledge from decisionmakers,and failures to provide accurate judgments from experts. In this study, we propose to use the EvidentialReasoning (ER) approach to manage the expanding complexities and uncertainties in RES prioritization problem.The ER approach is employed as a multiple criteria framework to assess the appropriateness regarding the use ofdifferent renewable energy technologies. A case study is provided to illustrate the implementation process. Resultsshow that using the ER approach when assessing the sustainability of different RES under uncertainty allowsproviding robust decisions, which brings out a more accurate, effective, and better-informed decision-making toolto conduct the evaluation process.
