Nowadays, because of the energy crisis, combined heat and power systems have notable benefits. One of the best devices is SOFC (Solid Oxide Fuel Cell) which joins heat and power frameworks. Some considerable failure modes arise that can affect these devices’ productivity. Generally, failure modes evaluations need an experts team to achieve uncertainties belongs to the risk assessment procedure. To improve the efficiency of the routine FMEA methodology and to represent a suitable hybrid fuzzy MCDM approach for FMEA, in this work, fully fuzzy best-worst method (FF-BWM) is employed to achieve the risk factors weights then fuzzy weighted aggregated sum product assessment (F-WASPAS) approach to detect the failure modes priorities is utilized. Ultimately, the sensitivity analyses demonstrate that the offered framework is verified and can make applicable data in risk management decision-making evaluation.
