Abstract
This study is concerned with the very topical issue of assessing electricity production technologies according to sustainable development criteria. The objective is to be able to classify the most important production electricity technologies according to the three pillars of sustainable development: economic, environmental, and social sustainability. Our classification is based on multi-criteria tools respecting the non-compensation of bad performances. Thanks to our results, we can make technological choices with greater objectivity.
Notes
1One-third of all world production.
2The most important transportation technique for long distance.
320% of the transport of gas made.
4Termed “yellow cake.”
5Most reactors use uranium oxide.
6The lifetime of radioactive elements, concentration of radionuclesides in waste, and the heat produced by disintegration of radioactive products.
7By that time it was called UCPTE (Union for the Coordination of the Production and Transport of Electricity).
