AB  - As a result of the rapid depletion of fuels, high costs and environmental concerns which is in today’s conditions in energy production by traditional methods cause rapid orientation to renewable energy sources. In this context, the number of alternative researches and studies on the phenomenon of energy, which has become an indicator of the development of countries, has increased steadily. Taking measures by analysing possible failures and risks in the establishment and operation of renewable energy plants is of great importance in terms of cost control, efficiency, sustainability of production and ensuring the safety of life and property. For this reason, in this study, failures and risks occurring in the projecting stage, which is the first and important stage of the installation of solar power plants (SPP), which are among the sustainable and renewable energy sources that have become an important part of our lives are analysed using Failure Mode Effect Analysis (FMEA). In the FMEA analysis, the precautions that can be taken against the mistakes and risks that may be encountered regarding the researched subject were investigated. In addition, the opinions of experts on this subject expressed in the literature and researches were also taken into consideration. Then, with the Pareto analysis and Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) method systematic, the order of importance of the risks was determined and the similarities between them were tried to be determined.
