Using a new parsimonious AHP methodology combined with the Choquet integral: An application for evaluating social housing initiatives [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2017
We propose a development of the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) permitting to use the methodology also in cases of decision problems with a very large number of alternatives evaluated with respect to several criteria. While the application of the original AHP method involves many pairwise comparisons between alternatives and criteria, our proposal is ...

Ramping‐Up Electrolyser Manufacturing for the Green Hydrogen Transition: A Planning Approach for Scalable Factory Concepts

open access: yesElectrochemical Science Advances, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In pursuit of more sustainable energy systems, green hydrogen supports renewable energy supply and enables flexible energy storage. To achieve both nationally and globally set goals of the green hydrogen transition, affordable hydrogen electrolysers need to be available. However, only small‐scale production facilities have yet been established.

Enhanced Objectivity of AHP for More Reliable Solar Farm Site Selection

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
While the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) was originally designed for subjectively relatable criteria, there may also be objectively defined relationships or consensus on certain criteria pairs. To incorporate these objective relationships and consensuses, this study introduces the analytical hierarchy process with optimized hierarchy (AHP‐OH).

Techno‐Economic Comparison of Battery–Flywheel With Battery–Hydrogen Storage System in the Vicinity of Off‐Grid HRES for Four Climates: MCDM Method

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ensuring sustainable power and heating in remote rural areas presents a considerable challenge. Renewable hybrid systems are typically recommended for this purpose; however, maintaining stability necessitates either a connection to the grid requiring electricity purchases from power plants, which are significant sources of pollution, or the ...

Optimal Reactive Power Planning Using FACTS Devices for Voltage Stability Enhancement in Power Transmission Systems

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
Series and Shunt Reactive compensation can be used to improve voltage stability. The L‐index and Fast Voltage Stability Index are used to evaluate stability. Cost of reactive compensation is included directly in the optimization process. Multi‐objective optimization determines the optimal sizing of FACTS devices.

Evaluation and selection of Medical Tourism sites: A rough AHP based MABAC approach [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
In this paper, a novel multiple criteria decision making (MCDM) methodology is presented for assessing and prioritizing medical tourism destinations in uncertain environment. A systematic evaluation and assessment method is proposed by integrating rough number based AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process) and rough number based MABAC (Multi-Attributive Border

From Site Selection to Characterization: Assessment of Potential Reservoirs in the Lurestan Basin of Iran for Carbon Sequestration

open access: yesGreenhouse Gases: Science and Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The increasing global focus on carbon sequestration underscores the need for comprehensive CO2 storage atlases, extending beyond Europe and America to other countries that are significant contributors to carbon dioxide emissions. This article addresses this imperative by examining the CO2 storage potential in the Lurestan area of Iran, with a ...

Major Conundrums and Possible Solutions in DeFi Insurance

open access: yesInternational Journal of Finance &Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper empirically explores the early development of insurance projects in the decentralised finance (DeFi) industry, which is based on disruptive technologies like blockchain and smart contracts. A brief history of DeFi is narrated, stressing four risks of DeFi (volatility risk, cyberattack risk, liquidity risk, and regulation risk) and ...
