Abstract

Successfully steering the intricate transition to a sustainable energy system entails the inclusion of diverse stakeholders and the evaluation of numerous criteria in a multifaceted decision-making framework. This frequently presents challenges in the realm of data management. This work lays out conceptual considerations for identifying suitable weighting approaches in the context of Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis applied in sustainable energy transitions in the Sahel region.
