Abstract: Currently, many defects have appeared in wind and solar power generation systems. Utilizing the complementary of wind and solar power generation will break the bottleneck of new energy development. How to select the site of wind/solar hybrid power station scientifically is a primary problem. First, the framework of the indicator system is obtained from the literature review and refined according to the resources evaluation standards and different perspectives of the various scholars. Then this paper selects seven wind/solar hybrid power stations which have been put into operation as the case study, weights the indicators through the method of order relations, and evaluates these seven regions via ELECTRE-II. The conclusions are consistent with the related research findings and have better correctness, proving the feasibility and effectiveness of the method. It may provide some theoretical basis for the macro-site selection of wind/solar hybrid power station.
