Methods for multi-criteria sustainability and reliability assessments of power systems
Matteson, Schuyler - In: Energy 71 (2014) C, pp. 130-136
This paper reviews a published multi-criteria assessment of power systems and proposes new methods for normalization and ranking of criteria indicators. In previous work, the power systems are evaluated and ranked relative to the other systems considered in the assessment. This relative ranking...

Security aspects of future renewable energy systems–A short overview
Johansson, Bengt - In: Energy 61 (2013) C, pp. 598-605
Energy security is sometimes used to advocate renewable energy systems. Renewable energy systems can improve some aspects of security, but they will not automatically lead to the removal of all types of security problems and new problems will most certainly arise. This paper analyses energy...
