| Abstract: | This paper presents a multi-criteria evaluation of the appropriate offshore wind farm location in Nigeria. The proposed site selection criterion takes into consideration the technical aspect of the Environment consideration. The four attributes considered in this work are proximity to power demand, Distance from Airport, Average wind speed and Interference with existing shipping route. These attributes were analyzed for three alternative locations (Victoria Island, Koko and Abbonema in Lagos, Warri and Port-Harcourt respectively) using Analytical Hierarchy Process to assign weight through pair-wise comparison and fuzzy TOPSIS Multicriteria decision-making tool to make an appropriate selection. The results from this work showed that Victoria Island (Lagos) has the highest figure cumulative value of 894.23, Koko (Warri) has 740.04 and Abonnema (Port-Harcourt) with a value of 756.96. |
