Multi-criteria applications in renewable energy analysis: A literature review (2011, methodology): “• Multi-attribute utility theory (MAUT): This is one of the most popular MSDM methods.”
Prioritizing low-carbon energy sources to enhance China’s energy security (2015, methodology): “To readers unaware of this process, there are many MCDM methods such as PROMETHEE [16], a family of ELECTRE methods [17] including ELECTRE I, ELECTRE II, ELECTRE III, and other hybridized approaches such as VIKOR [37], AHP [23], and TOPSIS [20].”
Extension of VIKOR method for decision making problem based on hesitant fuzzy set (2013, methodology): “Therefore, it is suitable for those situations in which the decision maker wants to have maximum profit and the risk of the decisions is less important for him [1,5–10].”
A comparative analysis of VIKOR method and its variants (2016, methodology): “The VIKOR method is an effective MCDM tool, particularly when the decision maker is not able, or does not know to express his/her preference at the beginning of system design (Chatterjee et al., 2009; San Cristóbal, 2011; Anojkumar et al., 2014).”
A system of systems approach to energy sustainability assessment: Are all renewables really green? (2015, background): “San Cristóbal (2011) investigated var- ous renewable energy sources in Spain based on different criteria, uch as power, investment ratio, implementation period, operatng hours, useful life, operation and maintenance costs, and tons f CO2 avoided.”
An Extended PROMETHE II Multi-Criteria Group Decision Making Technique Based on Intuitionistic Fuzzy Logic for Sustainable Energy Planning (2016, methodology): “The complexity of energy planning and energy projects makesMCGM a valuable tool in the decision making process (Cristóbal 2011).”
Ranking universities based on performance evaluation by a hybrid MCDM model (2012, methodology): “Both the AHP (Barbarosoglu & Yazgac, 1997; Goh, 1997; Dong et al., 2010) and the VIKOR method (Chang & Hsu, 2009; Kuo & Liang, 2011; San Cristóbal, 2011) have been utilized in prior research concerned with weighting and selecting issues, and the reliabilities of both methods have also been verified.”
