Sustainability Assessment of Electricity Generation in Niger Using a Weighted Multi-Criteria Decision Approach

et al. 2021

The majority of Niger’s population faces a widespread lack of access to electricity. Although the country lies in the Sahara belt, exploitation of solar energy is so far minimal. Due to ongoing fossil fuel exploration in the country, this fuel might dominate the future electricity supply. Today, Niger imports the most of its electricity from Nigeria. There is a need to expand electricity generation and supply infrastructures in Niger. When doing so, it is important to choose a proper set of electricity generation resource/technology that fulfils sustainability criteria. Thus, the objective of this work is to analyze a methodology in order to assess different energy technologies for Niger. A multi-criteria decision approach was selected to assess the most accessible energy system for the country. For this purpose, indicators were developed and weighted for ranking electricity generation options. Altogether 40 indicators are selected under six dimensions (availability, risk, technology, economics, environment and social) to assess eight different alternatives, considering the aggregated results and corresponding scores under each dimension. A merit list of technology and resources for electricity generation presented in this work could support the stakeholders in their decision-making for further projects implementation in the country.

In the context of sustainable development and global challenges such as climate change and energy security, this paper conducts a bibliometric analysis of scientific journals on multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) methods with an emphasis on their applications in environmental and energy engineering. The study used the CiteSpace software program 6.2.R6 Advanced to analyze citation networks and identify key publications, authors, and research topics. The simulations carried out made it possible to identify the main research centers and patterns of international cooperation, pointing to the key countries and institutions involved in MCDM research. The results of the analysis reveal the research areas of greatest interest and the main directions for future research. These results can support scientists, researchers, and policymakers in making more informed and sustainable decisions, contributing to the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals.
