Solar energy technologies are mainly composed of
photovoltaics and concentrated solar power (solar thermal) technologies.
Photovoltaic technology converts sunlight into electricity directly whereas
solar thermal technology utilizes its heat. Innovative solar energy
technologies appear in the market relatively more often than other energy
technologies. Selection among these innovative solar energy technologies is a
multi-criteria decision making problem under uncertain environment conditions.
Intuitionistic fuzzy sets provide an efficient way of capturing uncertainty by
processing both membership and non-membership degrees in a set, whose sum of these
degrees is not necessarily equal to one. In this paper, we use an
interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy AHP method for the multi-criteria
evaluation of some innovative solar energy technologies. An application of
solar energy technology selection is also presented through the proposed
method.
