In the last few decades, the computational methods under Multi-Criteria Decision-Making (MCDM) have experienced significant growth in research interests from various scientific communities. Multi-Attributive Border Approximation area Comparison (MABAC) is one of the MCDM methods where its computation procedures are based on distances and areas, and able to express a complex decision systematically. Previous literature have suggested the combination of MABAC with fuzzy sets, in which this combination is used to solve problems that are characterized by uncertain and incomplete information. Differently from the fuzzy MABAC, which directly used single membership, this paper proposes bipolar neutrosophic MABAC of which the positive and negative of truth, indeterminate and false memberships of bipolar neutrosophic set are introduced to enhance decision in sustainable energy selection. Fourteen criteria and seven alternatives of sustainable energy are the main MCDM structures that need to be solved using the proposed method. A group of experts were invited to provide rating of performance values of criteria and alternatives of sustainable energy problem using a bipolar neutrosophic linguistic scale. The distances of alternatives from the Border Approximation Area of bipolar neutrosophic MABAC are the main output of the proposed method prior to making the final decision. The computational results show that ‘Biomass’ is the optimal alternative to sustainable energy selection. Comparable results are also presented to check the consistency of the proposed method.
