Zusammenfassung:The energy mix in India relies heavily on the energy sources basically categorized as conventional. Renewable energy (RE) encouragements in India have to be seen from a long term and wider frame of reference, so that it contributes towards reliability and energy security. This paper vital motive is to assess and prioritize the sustainable energy sources in India which are accomplishing utmost factors like acceptability, space limits, availability, gestation period, safety considerations, localization and execution. Sources consider for analysis are solar, wind, hydro and nuclear energy. PROMETHEE (Preference Ranking Organization Method for Enrichment Evaluation) have been used to achieve the suitability among the sources of energy and to persuade different factors. This paper concluded solar energy as the most profitable and economical energy source for India, followed by wind energy, than hydro energy and in the last nuclear energy. Nuclear energy acceptability is low in view of the fact of public oppression and the corresponding dangers bound with unbinding power of atom. This paper may help the decision makers to formulate long-term energy policy aiming for sustainability.
