Carbon emission regulation policies have emerged as mechanisms to control firms' carbon emissions. To meet regulatory requirements, firms can make changes in their production planning decisions or invest in green technologies. In this study, we analyse a retailer's joint decisions on inventory replenishment and carbon emission reduction investment under three carbon emission regulation policies. Particularly, we extend the economic order quantity model to consider carbon emissions reduction investment availability under carbon cap, tax and cap-and-trade policies. We analytically show that carbon emission reduction investment opportunities, additional to reducing emissions as per regulations, further reduce carbon emissions while reducing costs. We also provide an analytical comparison between various investment opportunities and compare different carbon emission regulation policies in terms of costs and emissions. We document the results of a numerical study to further illustrate the effects of investment availability and regulation parameters. © 2013 Taylor & Francis

“…In addition, also the transportation between subsequent production process stages and disposal phases provide opportunities to better understand the importance of life cycle energy impacts. Thus, the logistic and waste management activities should be integrated in the analyses for the improvement of energy efficiency [22]. Supply chain energy efficiency is not the sum of In an environment characterized by high globalization, rapidly advancing technology and increasingly demanding customers, companies within the same supply chain should cooperate to satisfy customer needs better than their competitors.…”

“…Zanoni and Zavanella [67] aim to propose an analytical model jointly looking at economic and energy aspects of the food supply chain, explicitly considering the specific requirements, in terms of temperature and storage time, to preserve the product quality over time, so as to support decisions makers and improving the sustainability of the supply chain. Hasanov et al [22] introduced a closed-loop supply chain model that considers the economic value and energy content of products and proposed a novel framework for studying lot-sizing policies of production processes through a life cycle analysis. The numerical results highlighted that energy, transportation and disposal costs in supply chain are strongly interdependent and highly affects the environmental performance of a production-inventory system.…”

Supply Chain Management for Improved Energy Efficiency: Review and Opportunities

Energy efficiency represents a key resource for economic and social development, providing substantial benefits to different stakeholders, ranging from the entities which develop energy efficient measures to everyone in society. In addition to cost savings, multiple benefits can be achieved by supporting a better alignment between energy issues and strategic business priorities: e.g., improved competitiveness, profitability, quality, etc. Thus, energy efficiency can be a strategic advantage, not just a marginal issue, for companies. However, most firms, especially small and medium enterprises (SMEs), face many problems and, in some cases, hostility when trying to effectively implement energy efficiency actions. The most dominant barriers are the access to capital and the lack of awareness (especially in terms of life cycle cost effects). The supply chain viewpoint represents one of the main opportunities for overcoming those barriers and improving energy performance even for weaker companies. Since the current literature on energy efficiency and practical approaches to ensure energy efficiency mainly focus on energy performance on a single-firm basis, this paper aims to provide a systematic review of papers on the integration of energy efficiency in supply chain design and management published in academic journal, thereby defining potential research streams to close the gaps in the literature. A number of literature reviews have been published focusing on specific aspects of sustainable or on green supply chain management; however, to the best of our knowledge, no review has focused on the energy efficiency issue. Firstly, the present paper shows how considering energy consumption in supply chain management can contribute to more energy-efficient processes from a systemic point of view. Then, the review methodology used is defined and the sampled papers are analyzed and categorized based on the different approaches they propose. From these analyses, potential future research streams are outlined.

“…that investing to enhance environmental performance may lead to better profit levels (Ambec & Lanoie, 2008;Klassen & McLaughlin, 1996;Rao & Holt, 2005). This work can be extended by considering transport costs and waste generated by a production process or remanufacturing activities (Hasanov, Jaber, Zanoni, & Zavanella, 2013;Jaber, Zanoni, & Zavanella, 2014). This suggests that adopting an integrated policy would lead to eco-efficient solutions.…”

This paper presents a joint economic lot size (JELS) model for coordinated inventory replenishment decisions considering price and environmentally sensitive demand. It assumes a single product that flows along a two-level supply chain (vendor-buyer). The buyer's demand is linear and sensitive to the product's price and its environmental performance. A capital investment is considered necessary to improve the production process resulting in an indirect improvement of the product's environmental quality. A mathematical model is developed to represent this situation and solved to maximize the total profit of the supply chain for: (1) the vendor's production lot size quantity and the number of shipments to the buyer, and (2) the selling price and the amount invested to improve the production process. Numerical examples are provided with their results discussed.
