The need to meet current energy demands while protecting the interests of future generations has driven people to adopt regulatory frameworks that promote the careful use of limited resources. Among these resources, the sun is an everlasting source of energy. Solar energy stands out as a prime example of a renewable and environmentally friendly energy source. An imperative requirement exists for precise and dependable decision-making methods for the selection of the most efficacious solar cell. We aimed to address this particular issue. The theory of complex intuitionistic fuzzy sets (CIFS) adeptly tackles ambiguity, encompassing complex problem formulations characterized by both intuitionistic uncertainty and periodicity. We introduced two aggregation operators: The complex intuitionistic fuzzy dynamic ordered weighted averaging (CIFDOWA) operator and the complex intuitionistic fuzzy dynamic ordered weighted geometric (CIFDOWG) operator. Noteworthy features of these operators were stated, and significant special cases were meticulously outlined. An updated score function was devised to address the deficiencies, identified in the current score function within the context of CIF knowledge. In addition, we devised a methodical strategy for managing multiple attribute decision-making (MADM) problems that involve CIF data by implementing the proposed operators. To demonstrate the efficacy of the formulated algorithm, we presented a numerical example involving the selection of solar cells together with a comparative analysis with several well-established methodologies.
