Solar energy utilization has evolved tremendously in many countries to compete with conventional energy sources due to abundant availability, ongoing module price declines, and efficiency gains. Besides these advantages, most solar power plants continue to underperform due to various technical...

Bangladesh has tremendous development potential across a wide range of socioeconomic sectors. Over the past decade, its energy and power sectors have grown consistently. However, the unexpected outbreak of COVID-19 threatens the continuation of progress. To successfully overcome and comply with...

Clean energy technological innovations are widely acknowledged as a prerequisite to achieving ambitious long-term energy and climate targets. However, the optimal speed of their adoption has been parsimoniously studied in the literature. This study seeks to identify the optimal intensity of...

We demonstrate how multiple criteria decision analysis (MCDA) is applied to assist prioritisation of investment in research and development programs. We investigate a case study of research programs prioritisation towards the Renewable Energy Powerhouse Mission by CSIRO, Australia’s national...

The application of MCDA (Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis) methods spans a wide variety of modern decision situations. These are associated with conflicting DM (Decision-Maker) opinions and values, differing criteria importance, and contrasting performance of the solution alternatives. The DMs...
