Intuitionistic fuzzy hypersoft sets (IFHSSs) are a novel model that is projected to address the limitations of Intuitionistic fuzzy soft sets (IFSSs) regarding the entitlement of a multi-argument domain for the approximation of parameters under consideration. It is more flexible and reliable as it considers the further classification of parameters into their relevant parametric valued sets. In this paper, we proposed some trigonometric (cosine and cotangent) similarity measures and their weighted trigonometric similarity measures (SMs). Trigonometric Similarity measures (SMs) for intuitionistic fuzzy hypersoft sets (IFHSSs) are significantly implied to check the similarity measures and help to determine the similarity between different factors. Also, in order to evaluate the validity of the significant study and apply the results to a daily life problem. We use them to solve problems involving the selection of renewable energy sources. According to several technical contributing factors, the analysis identifies the ideal location for the implementation of the energy production units. Future case studies with many features and additional bifurcation along with multiple decision-makers can use the suggested methodologies. Also, several existing structures, such as fuzzy, Pythagorean fuzzy, Neutrosophic theories, etc., can be utilized with the suggested method.
