This paper proposes to solve the concern as to which alternative is most suitable for energy production in a new power plant set up in India by extending the PROMETHEE II method to interval-valued 2-tuple linguistic variables where the criteria weights are supplied using the entropy measure.

Abstract

Abstract In this paper, we address to the concern as to which alternative is most suitable for energy production in a new power plant set up in India. We model this problem as a multi-criteria group decision making problem where the criteria values are described in terms of interval-valued 2-tuple linguistic variables. We propose to solve this model by extending the PROMETHEE II method to interval-valued 2-tuple linguistic variables where the criteria weights in the PROMETHEE II method are supplied using the entropy measure. A small example is presented to illustrate the practicality and usefulness of the proposed method.
