Abstract:
In response to the energy crisis and the global push for sustainability,
modern power grids are increasingly integrating renewable energy, plug-
in electric vehicles, and energy storage systems. This evolution demands
an advanced energy management system capable of handling the
variability of renewable resources, uncertainties in electric vehicle
performance, fluctuating electricity prices, and dynamic load conditions.
To address these challenges, our study introduces a novel decision-
making framework that leverages a new score function for comparing q-
rung orthopair multi-fuzzy soft numbers. This approach employs the
Criteria Importance Through Inter-criteria Correlation (CRITIC) method to
determine objective weights while simultaneously incorporating
subjective preferences through an integrated weighting scheme. The
framework is further enhanced by applying the Combined Compromise
Solution (CoCoSo) method within the Lq* q-rung orthopair multi-fuzzy
soft decision-making structure to select optimal energy management
policies. Extensive sensitivity analysis confirms the robustness and
effectiveness of the proposed methodology, offering a promising solution
for efficient energy management in modern power systems.
Keywords:
Energy management policy, Score function, Lq* q-ROMFSSs, CRITIC, CoCoSo
