Abstract EN
Decentralized energy planning (DEP) is looked upon as an indisputable opportunity for energy planning of villages, isolated islands, and far spots.
Nonetheless, at this decentralized planning level, the value of demand-side resources is not fairly examined, despite enjoying great advantages.
Therefore, the core task of this study is to integrate demand-side resources, as a competing solution against supply-side alternatives, with decentralized energy planning decisions and demonstrate the rewarding role it plays.
Moreover, sustainability indicators (SIs) are incorporated into DEP attempts in order to attain sustainable development.
It is emphasized that unless these indicators are considered at lower energy planning levels, they will be ignored at higher planning levels as well.
Hence, to the best knowledge of the authors, this study for the first time takes into account greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions produced by utilization of renewable energies in DEP optimization models.
To address the issues mentioned previously, multiobjective linear programming model along with a min-max goal programming approach is employed.
Finally, using data taken from the literature, the model is solved, and the obtained results are discussed.
The results show that DSM policies have remarkably contributed to significant improvements especially in terms of environmental indicators.
