Abstract
This paper uses analytical hierarchy process (AHP) methodology to perform a comparison between the different electricity power production options in Jordan. The systems which were considered, in addition to fossil fuel power plants, are nuclear, solar, wind, and hydro-power. Results on cost-to-benefit ratios show that solar, wind, end hydro-power may be the best alternatives for electric power production. Nuclear electricity turns out to be the worst choice, followed by fossil fuel electric power.
