The site selection optimization for thermal power plant will directly impact the economic operation and sustainable development. On the basis of constructing index system for site selection of thermal power plant, the method of rough set is applied to obtain the index weights, which are determined only by the system potential information. Through the method of expert decision-making, the quantitative and qualitative information is integrated, and the priority of the alternatives is obtained. The multi-objective model for site selection optimization is built up to balance the economical efficiency and the average comprehensive efficiency. In consideration of decision-makers predilection and heat load demand, the two goals of cost minimum and average comprehensive efficiency maximum are achieved at the same time. Case analysis indicates that the method for site selection optimization of thermal power plant proposed in this paper possesses some advantages, such as scientificity and practicability.

We present a summary of the principal findings in an ongoing, multiyear, survey of the solar radiation resource and associated meteorological parameters in Israel’s Negev Desert. The summary addresses calibration and monitoring issues, the format in which the annual results are published, availability of the data, and some of the more interesting results observed to date. In particular, we quantify the large variability observed in the direct beam radiation across neighboring sites. The year-to-year variation in this radiation component is also considerable. The variation in the global horizontal radiation is much smaller. Two practical examples are given of uses to which the Negev Radiation Survey has been put: Site selection for a proposed 500 MW solar-thermal power plant; and an estimation of the potential photovoltaic value of rooftops in the major cities.

Thermal Power Plant (TPP) is one of those discoveries that have changed the daily life of everybody and playing vital role in the present real world. The selection of site for thermal power plant, affects the amount of energy generated, power generation cost, economical development, environment and transmission (loss of power). In present work, fuzzy multi-criteria decision making (FMCDM) approach is proposed for site selection of TPP under partial or incomplete information. The proposed approach initially identified the criteria for site selection of TPP. Then the experts are provided linguistic ratings as well as weights to the potential alternatives against the selected criteria. Fuzzy-TOPSIS (Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution) is applied to generate aggregate scores selection of best alternative. Finally a case empirical research is adapted to fruitful the proposed approach.
