This study aims to develop a model for project selection based on the strategic planning of an electric utility in Brazil, which will compose the annual project portfolio. The selection of these projects is made in the absence of information with sufficient detail for the use of the most commonly applied quantitative criteria, for example, the internal rate of return and the net present value. To develop this model, we used the decision support method PROMETHEE V, which allowed for the incorporation of existing restrictions on the model, using integer linear programming. The model is shown to be extremely robust and achieved the study aims.
