PRIORITIZING RENEWABLE ENERGY ALTERNATIVES USING THE PSI PrOPPAGA HYBRID METHOD IN THE ENERGY TRANSITION SCENARIO

The transition to renewable energy sources is a matter of great importance in the current global context, given the growing demand for energy and the environmental and socio-economic challenges facing the world. The search for a more sustainable energy matrix has become an undeniable priority around the world. This study aims to rank the best sources of renewable energy for Brazil, using the PSI-PrOPPAGA hybrid method. The criteria considered include Efficiency in Power Generation, Economic Feasibility and Social Acceptance. After thorough analysis and consultation with experts through anonymous questionnaires, Solar Energy emerges as the most viable option, followed by Natural Gas and Hydropower. The method has been shown to be effective in reducing subjectivity in decision-making, offering a systematic approach to prioritizing renewable energy alternatives.
