Özet:

Today, the need for energy and energy resources is constantly increasing. For the production of energy, fossil resources such as coal, natural gas, oil are often used. These resources have a lot of economic and environmental negative effects. In order to eliminate these effects, the use of renewable energy sources (RNAs) such as wind, solar, biomass, hydroelectric, geothermal should be spread. To do this, alternatives should be evaluated and the places where the investment is appropriate should be determined. The evaluation process includes multiple alternatives and different evaluation criteria at the same time. Multi-critical decision making (MCDM) techniques used in solving such problems are popular methods used in the application in cases where more than one criterion is affected. In this study, MCDM techniques used in the assessment of YEK alternatives, the criteria used in the assessment and the methods used in the determination of the levels of importance (weight) of the different assessment criteria. There are also reasons why all of these techniques are preferred. To emphasize the assessment criteria, the AHP and Entropy methods are the methods used to rank alternatives, the TOPSIS, the AHP and the COPRAS methods. Investment costs within economic criteria, efficiency from technological criteria, environmental impact from environmental criteria, business creation from social criteria and government support from political criteria are criteria used. The findings in this study will be useful for researchers especially for their energy planning studies.
