In recent years, solar power has developed significantly in Vietnam, making an important contribution to ensuring energy conservation and decreasing greenhouse gas exposure. Recently, Vietnam has experienced impressive growth in the solar and wind energy sectors, showing the high potential of using renewable electricity in addressing energy needs. The target of this study was to construct a fuzzy multicriteria decision-making, model including strengths-weaknesses-opportunities-challenges (SWOC) analysis, the fuzzy analytic hierarchy process (F-AHP) model, and the weighted aggregates sum product assessment (WASPAS) model, to select the location of a solar power plant in south Vietnam. The proposed fuzzy multicriteria decision-making model (MCDM) model is the first solar power plant location selection in southern Vietnam that utilizes literature reviews and expert interviews. Moreover, this is the first study to provide a case study on evaluating locations during solar power plant location selection that utilizes a combination of the SWOC, FAHP, and WASPAS models. The findings of this study provide valuable knowledge for the assessment and selection of suitable locations for renewable energy projects, including both solar power energy projects and other renewable energy projects. |
