• A review of methods for rural electrification planning with distributed generation
• The new paradigm includes several objectives or evaluation criteria.
• Multi-criteria decision-making models offer better responses.
• Longer temporal horizon to fairly evaluate the different technological alternatives
• Environmental and social criteria improve robustness in energy planning.
This work presents and examines the mathematical methods utilised for electrification planning in rural environments with decentralised energy sources. The main objective is to obtain conclusions on the best possible formulation of the multi-criteria decision-making problem related to the alternatives for a robust planning that is coherent to the local environment and needs of resident. From previous works, it is clear that the on-going paradigm shift started in the 1990s. The new paradigm is characterised by the inclusion of more than one objective or evaluation criterion. This objective makes electrification planning a multidimensional process with clear evidence that the multi-criteria decision-making models offer better responses for the present-day requirements of decentralised energy planning in rural environments.
