ارزیابی عملکرد مدیریت انرژی ترکیه از طریق یک روش تصمیم گیری چند منظوره ترکیبی

In this paper, we employ a hybrid multi-criteria decision-making methodology to evaluate the energy management performance of selected nine countries with a focus on Turkey with respect to a number of criteria. The hybrid approach integrates three methods, viz. Analytical Hierarchy Process, Multi-Criteria Optimization and Compromise Solution, and Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution. It enables decision-makers assess multiple alternatives within an analytic framework while considering multiple criteria simultaneously. We perform our analysis for each year between 2001 and 2016. The results show that, with its fast-growing population, dynamic economy, and huge energy saving potential, Turkey displays a low profile compared to the other countries in our scope. Our results can be encompassed by in-depth analyses and long-term plans to shift the country's energy technology selection strategies to more efficient, cost-effective and cleaner options.
