Multicriteria Decision Analysis of Suitable Location for Wind and Photovoltaic Power Plants on the Galápagos Islands

Abstract: The Galapagos Islands have been declared a World Heritage site due to their unique biodiversity, which makes them a living museum and a natural laboratory for humankind. However, to fulfill the energy needs of its habitants and foreign visitors, the islands have depended on fossil fuel energies that have produced levels of lead and chemical agents that are affecting the islands’ air quality, flora, and fauna. Therefore, zero-carbon initiatives have been created to protect the islands, wherein solar and wind po… Show more

“…AHP provides a clear path for breaking down an abstract problem into concrete analytical units, while FCE allows for the establishment of a series of grading standards upon this foundation, facilitating the collection of data from diverse sources. This approach enables the quantitative integration and analysis of information from different dimensions [26,27]. The innovation of this article lies in applying these well-developed methods in combination to assess ecosystem services, offering a flexible strategy to tackle the challenges we face.…”
