促进生物能源生产是当今世界的一个重要课题。大量的研究被分配到分析和理解生物能源系统，这是多方面的性质。尽管重点部署的多标准决策（MCDM）方法规划的生物能源系统，只有很少的研究已经解决了生物能源设施规划的位置组成部分。在本文中，作者开发了一个可持续的丹麦沼气部门的产能扩张模型，允许确定和优先考虑合适的沼气生产地点。该模型建立在空间规划和决策的框架，通过应用空间多标准评价（SMCE）。本文围绕一个案例研究，包括四个丹麦城市，以展示空间多标准评价模型的力量。该模型允许两个级别的适合性比较，在城市以及城市之间。标准权重生成的替代品是通过层次分析法（AHP）的分析，丹麦中央政府决策者之间进行。我们发现，资源和生产的经济标准给予最高优先级，其次是环境和社会标准。在所有四个案例研究城市中，通过纳入经济、环境和社会标准，对所确定的替代方案进行了比较。结果发现，4-6%的城市面积适合沼气设施的位置，其中表现最好的可持续发展的位置，降低整体生产成本的潜力是3%，与目前的沼气厂相比。本文的研究结果可以为中央政府的决策者提供支持，在国家的区域分配补贴。同样，地方决策者可以获得规划和决策支持的重要信息，从而使规划程序更具包容性和透明度。
Promotion of bioenergy production is an important contemporary topic around the world. Vast amounts of research are allocated towards analysing and understanding bioenergy systems, which are by nature multi-faceted. Despite a focus on the deployment of multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) methods for planning of bioenergy systems, only little research has addressed the location component of bioenergy facility planning. In this paper the authors develop a model for sustainable capacity expansion of the Danish biogas sector allowing for an identification and prioritization of suitable locations for biogas production. The model builds on a framework for spatial planning and decision making through the application of spatial multi-criteria evaluation (SMCE). The paper is structured around a case study including four Danish municipalities in order to demonstrate the power of the spatial multi-criteria evaluation model. The model allows a two level comparison of suitability, within municipalities as well as between municipalities. Criteria weights for generation of alternatives are obtained through an analytical hierarchy process (AHP) analysis, carried out among a group of Danish central governmental decision makers. We find that resource and production economic criteria are given highest priority followed by environmental and social criteria. In all four case study municipalities, the identified alternatives are compared through incorporating economic, environmental and social criteria. It is found that 4–6% of the municipal area is suitable for biogas facility location and among the best performing sustainable locations the potential of reducing overall production costs is 3% as compared with current biogas plants. The results of this paper can provide support to central governmental decision makers, regarding regional allocation of subsidies in the country. Likewise local decision makers can obtain important information for planning and decision support, allowing for a more inclusive and transparent planning procedure.
