摘要: Abstract This article focuses on the problem of assessing environmental sustainability energy projects. For this purpose an original model, which is based various indicators that measure projects, has been developed. so called index projects (IESEP), can be used in scenario comparison, while measuring effectiveness proposed alternatives. Finally, example how to use model provided by analyzing alternatives ameliorate a hydroelectric project. In doing so, it possible show usefulness when as decision making tool for planners.
