Abstract

This paper describes a new concept of a negotiation aid system, developed over a GIS (geographic information system) and designed to facilitate reaching compromises among agents such as investors, environmental groups and governmental agencies, when deciding the location and sizing of new renewable energy sources in a region. The core model of an actor is similar to a fuzzy inference system of the Takagi-Sugeno type, built from a definition of preferences and levels of acceptability. An outranking method is employed to define geographical places of less conflict among the several actors negotiating. An application to the region of La Rioja, in Spain, is described.
