Abstract

A selection of optimal electrical energy equipment provides the better energy economics in terms of saving in energy or fully utilization of energy, saving in running cost and also provides the better human comfort. Hence, in the present work integrated multi criteria decision making methodology is presented for selection of appropriate electrical energy equipment. The proposed methodology is integration two diverse multi criteria decision making methods; Analytical hierarchy (AHP) and Preference selection index (PSI) method. In the proposed methodology, integrated normalized selection index is computed for every electrical energy equipments and based on it all the electrical energy equipments are ranked and appropriate electrical energy equipment is selected for a given application. Finally, a simple case study is demonstrated to validate the proposed methodology and its potential applicability for real cases.
