The comparision of wind farms construction project applying AHP method

W referacie opisano porównanie projektów budowy farm wiatrowych będących w różnych stadiach realizacji przygotowania inwestycji. Metodą, którą wykorzystano do porównania projektów jest metodą analizy wielokryterialnej AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process). Referat przedstawia opis metody oraz kryteriów, pod względem których porównano projekty. Wykazano, dla którego z rozpatrywanych projektów czas zdobycia wszystkich niezbędnych decyzji i pozwoleń do uzyskania decyzji o pozwoleniu na budowę jest najkrótszy.The article presents the comparison of wind farms construction projects which are in various stages of implementation in the project preparation. The method, which was used to compare projects, constitutes multi-criteria method of AHP analysis (Analytic Hierarchy Process). As well as this, the paper also presents the description of the method along with the description of criteria, regarding projects comparison. AHP method, although it is time-consuming one, when there are large number of the main criteria and subcriteria, is an excellent tool for analysing issues related to the analysis of the location of investment in the energy sector. The problem of decision making in AHP method can be presented in a hierarchical structure of all the main criteria, and these include: measurements of wind kinetic energy, environmental decision, local zoning plans and development rights with the aim to build a transmission line as well as a wind farm, technical requirements for power grid connection and local community in the project environment. In order to compare the above mentioned criteria, AHP method was applied, with 1 to 9 point scale. It has been shown that for P2 project, the time needed to obtain all the necessary decisions, concerning building permits, is the shortest
