Abstract
This project assessed the electrically sustainability of various countries using fuzzy logic mathematical techniques. To calculate these overall energy efficiency scores, expert opinion was obtained on various factors related to energy sustainability. These factors were renewable energy growth, amount of renewable resources generated, and amount of nonrenewable resources consumed. The amount of renewable resources generated and nonrenewable resources generated were also dependent on a set of sub-factors. Then, though the use of five analysis methods, Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) method, Guiasu Method, Yen Method, Dempster Shafer Theory, and the Set Value Statistical Method, an overall energy sustainability score was calculated for each country and the countries were then ranked according to these scores to determine the most and least energy efficient countries in today's world. (Key Words: Electrical Sustainability, Fuzzy Math, Renewable Energy)
