Abstract
The process of decision-making in any knowledge-based system inherits a lot of uncertainty in the form of imprecise, incomplete, and inexact information with partial contents where the systematic aggregation of the information plays a vital role. In the present communication, a new kind of fuzzy hypersoft set termed as T-spherical fuzzy hypersoft set has been proposed with various aggregation operators for the decision-making process of renewable energy source selection. Two different types of aggregation operators (arithmetic/geometric) for the T-spherical fuzzy hypersoft sets (TSFHSSs) have been studied along with various properties and important results. Further, an algorithm utilizing the proposed operators for solving the decision-making selection problem has been provided for obtaining the best solution for the renewable energy source selection problem. Some advantageous remarks have also been listed for better understanding and readability.
