Purpose This paper aims to comprehensively analyze renewable energy alternatives in Brazil, focusing on identifying the most suitable option for investment country’s sustainable development. Design/methodology/approach The study adopts step-wise weight assessment ratio analysis-multiobjective optimization by analysis −3NAG (a combination of three normalization methods) methodology, a multicriteria decision-making approach, evaluate and rank sources based key criteria such as resource availability, cost-effectiveness, job creation potential environmental impact. Findings reveals that solar emerges preferred choice offering significant advantages over other hydroelectric, wind biomass energy. Solar energy’s distributed generation capability, cost reduction trends positive impact contribute its favorable position meeting Brazil’s needs. Research limitations/implications While provides valuable insights into selection, there are limitations regarding criteria’ scope exclusion specific options. Future research could explore sensitivity analyses incorporate additional enhance study’s comprehensiveness. Originality/value contributes existing literature thoroughly analyzing Brazil using robust methodology. findings provide actionable guidance policymakers, businesses stakeholders seeking promote development country.

Large-scale renewable energy plants such as solar photovoltaic (PV) farms are vital to the global transition a green economy. They reduce greenhouse gas emissions, mitigate climate change, and promote sustainable resilient energy. However, large-scale PV need adequate planning site selection for optimal performance. This study presents geographic information system (GIS)-based multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) framework utilizing analytic hierarchy process (AHP) identify sites utility-scale in Ikorodu, Lagos State, Nigeria. By integrating critical environmental, technical, economic, social factors, model evaluates land suitability projects across area. The finding indicates that 68.77% of is unsuitable development, with only 17.78% classified highly suitable 12.67% moderately suitable. Marginally most appropriate areas minimal, at 0.73% 0.04%, respectively. provides replicable approach stakeholders policymakers aiming implement solutions, aligning national targets. Future research could integrate dynamic factors community engagement, use changes, evolving environmental policies enhance models. offers valuable insights into contributes advancing Nigeria’s systems.

With the increasing frequency of floods in recent decades, particularly West Africa, many regions have faced unusual and recurrent flooding events. Communities flood-prone areas experience heightened insecurity, loss property, and, some cases, serious injuries or fatalities. Consequently, flood risk assessment mitigation become essential. This comparative study between Niamey Lokoja employs Geographic Information Systems (GIS) Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) to delineate susceptibility, vulnerability, zones. The utilized a comprehensive range thematic layers, with weight percentages assigned each parameter as follows: 29% for elevation, 24% slope, 15% Topographic Wetness Index (TWI), 9% drainage density, distance from rivers, 4% both precipitation Normalized Difference Water (NDWI), 2% Vegetation (NDVI) soil type. To validate these weightings, consistency ratio was calculated, ensuring it remained below 10%. findings reveal that 32% area is at flooding, compared approximately Lokoja. results highlight very high potential, near Niger River, this potential decreasing elevation increases. Given current prevalence extreme weather events crucial employ effective tools mitigate their adverse impacts. research will assist decision-makers quantifying spatial vulnerability developing strategies region.

Abstract Floating photovoltaics (FPVs) are appearing as a promising and an alternative renewable energy opinion in which PV panels mounted on floating platforms order to produce electricity from water such seas, dams, rivers, oceans, canals, fish farms, reservoirs. So far, studies related the body knowledge financial, technical, environmental aspects of installation FPV have not been performed Turkey while expanding steadily other countries. In this study, suitable site selection for power plants three lakes was studied by performing geographic information system (GIS) fuzzy analytic hierarchy process (FAHP) multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) method. This detailed study revealed that criterion global horizontal irradiance (GHI) determined most crucial Beysehir Lake, Lake Tuz, Van Lake. Additionally, it clearly seen had highest value approximately 52% among installation, is why selected best option with approach.

Solar photovoltaic (PV) technology stands out as a cornerstone in Bangladesh's journey towards achieving net-zero emissions, representing crucial building block the country's sustainable energy transition plan. However, rapid land use change and lack of suitable for developing PV pose significant barriers to renewable targets decarbonisation goals transition. Our analysis predevelopment state ten existing solar plants Bangladesh reveals substantial scarce agricultural their establishment. Therefore, identify pathways overcoming challenges, this study reassesses geographic technical potential using geospatial modelling by considering local contexts. investigation encompasses Rooftop (RPV), Ground-mounted (GPV), Floating (FPV), Agrivoltaic (APV) systems. To areas quantify potential, we employ comprehensive exclusion model system-specific suitability models QGIS platform. Utilising latest spatial datasets, including footprint data comprising approximately 20 million buildings, 10 metre (m) resolution cover map, bathymetry data, our provides robust analysis. The results present holistic view estimating about 30 GWp RPV, 9 GPV, 5 FPV, 81 APV applications. Given escalating urbanisation Bangladesh, findings recommend diversifying deployment with focus on RPV other systems that offer dual facilitate smoother development.
