Özet
Energy plays an important role in the countries realization of sustainable development moves in the global world. Especially, the influence level of investments to be made in the energy generation field on the development of sustainable energy policy is taken into consideration as a criterion that takes the global positions of the countries upwards. In this context, the fact that countries make investments to utilize the domestic and renewable energy resources they possess at the highest level reflects a become a necessity in terms of affecting all the criteria of economy, uninterruptedness, environmental awareness, and efficiency, which are the 4 pillars of sustainable energy policies. Accordingly, there are many studies in the literature that consider the suitability of the problem structure for multi-criteria decision-making methods and that are carried out at the regional or national level using different methods. However, in this study, unlike the literature, potential investments from all energy resources can be realized for Turkey have been evaluated under the criteria, which are calculated analytically, base of data and overarching. Energy investment alternatives ranking problem has been solved by using 7 methods/method combinations suitable for problem structure and recognized methods in the literature for the first time and obtained results have been evaluated in terms of Turkey, global energy sector and statistically. While these evaluation results have shown that wind and hydroelectric energy, which are among the renewable energy sources, contribute to the sustainable energy policy, in other hands, natural gas, which is among the fossil resources has been concluded that will be an indispensable source of investment for many years in terms of Turkey. In addition, it was concluded that the results obtained from all solution methods have a high correlation with statistical evaluation. This situation has confirmed that have been gathering significant criteria for sustainable energy. It is expected to enable creation of sustainable energy policies that can meet the ever-changing conditions by this study which includes the results that consistent with real life and statistically significant.
