English abstract

The research aim of the article is to assess the impact of a large industrial facility on the environment: Jebel Ali Power Plant and Desalination Plant located in the United Arab Emirates. We use AHP and Leopold Matrix principles and techniques to assess the impact of power plants on the environment. The combination of the two methods AHP and Leopold's Matrix ensures that decision-makers make informed choices towards sus- tainable solutions. The analysis shows that the Jebel Ali power plant and desalination plant have lit- tle negative impact on the environment. Nevertheless, noticeable impacts on the hydrosphere and atmosphere were observed. The burning of fossil fuels has a direct impact on the atmosphere by emitting harmful substances. Desalination of salt water and returning by-products to the sea also has a direct negative impact on the hydrosphere. The combination of both factors also affects the biosphere.The power plant is of great importance in solving the problem of water shortages in the region. The problem is solved by combining power generation and water desalination
