Popis: Energy consumption increases due to technological developments, urbanization, industrialization and population. The fact that the constantly increasing energy demand is not exactly known is an important issue for countries. In addition, due to changing climate conditions, the amount of emission emitted and energy produced from energy sources are also not quite known. Therefore, determining the energy demand, protecting the environment, and minimizing the energy cost by using resources effectively has become one of the most important problems of countries. In this context, the present study developed a fuzzy optimal renewable energy model (F-OREM) to solve the energy problem involving fuzzy parameters. Fuzzy linear programming (FLP) models provide the best decision by producing faster and more flexible solutions compared to classical linear programming (CLP) models in situations where there are uncertainties and a lack of information. The purpose of the developed model was to minimize the cost of generating electrical energy from different energy sources in an uncertain environment under potential, demand, emission and efficiency constraints. The developed F-OREM was operated using CPLEX decoder in the GAMS 24.2.3 package program and using the particle swarm optimization (PSO) for ∝ different values between 0-1. The results showed that the results of the metaheuristic method and the results of the GAMS package program were the same, and the results were consistent. According to the results obtained, the emission level at which the objective function was minimum (when ∝=1) was at the lowest level. In this case, the total emitted amount was 1,06125E+14 g-CO2/kWh. In this context, the developed model can be applied using metaheuristic or heuristic methods for larger test cases with thousands of variables. This study contributed to the practicality of FLP by offering decision-makers a wider solution area than the CLP approach.
