dc.description.alternativeAbstractIn an economy burdened by the costs of increasingly scarce oil and natural gas, and a planet already feeling the impact of fossil fuel driven climate change, renewable energy is undoubtedly our future. Due to global warming and the depletion of fossil fuels, the concern in climate change issues has increased rapidly. This immediately heightened the importance of energy security and efficiency to achieve sustainable development and all-inclusive growth. Sustainable development has indeed become one of the most popular terms in the last few decades. Energy is a crucial component of sustainable development. It is an essential factor in driving production, achieving stability and economic growth, creating jobs, improving living standards and reducing poverty. Egypt was a net exporter of oil and gas. Since 2008, however, Egypt has transformed from a net exporter to a net importer because of the rising demand and the declining production. In addition to the shortage in electricity supply, from 2010 till 2014 Egypt could not meet national energy demand. Therefore, alternative energy sources were inevitable. Following the global trend to use renewable energy, Egypt is going further for the transition to a clean energy. Multi-criteria Decision-making (MCDM) process such as AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process) and FAHP (Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process) are used to solve many decision-making problems. After thoroughly examining the country‘s potential of renewable energy sources, a FAHP model consists of goals, criteria, sub-criteria, and alternatives is developed to prioritize the renewable energy sources in Egypt. This methodology is expected to help policymakers to identify what is the most suitable renewable energy source that could contribute to Egypt's sustainable development strategy.-
