“…The quest of sustainability has also motivated the energy sector over the globe to adopt sustainable practices in production and delivery [22]. Therefore, global energy outlook is rapidly shifting towards renewable energy sources [23]. Of various types of renewable energy sources, Solar Photovoltaic (PV) Panels dominate the energy production both at domestic and commercial level [24].…”

Sustainable supplier selection and order allocation (SSSOA) is paramount to sustainable supply chain management. It is a complex multi-dimensional decision-making process augmented with the triple bottom line of sustainability. This research presents a multi-phase decision framework to address a SSSOA problem for the multi-echelon renewable energy equipment (Solar PV Panels) supply chain. The framework comprises of fuzzy Multi-Criteria Decision-Making techniques augmented with fuzzy multi-objective mixed-integer non-linear programming mathematical model. The various economic, environmental, and social objectives were optimized for a multi-period, multi-modal transportation network of the supply chain. The results show that among the various sustainable criteria selected in this study, product cost, environmental management system, and health and safety rights of employees are the most important for decision-makers. The results of the mathematical model highlighted the impact of multimodal transportation on overall cost, time, and environmental impact for all periods. An analysis of results revealed that transfer cost and customer clearance cost contribute significantly towards overall cost. Furthermore, defect rate was also observed to play a critical role in supplier selection and order allocation.

“…At the macro level, the global innovation system is a complex and adaptive [ 15 , 52 ], mission-oriented and evolving [ 9 , 10 ] value network with flexible and multi-level boundaries [ 37 , 66 , 74 ] that brings together general or specific actors with resources, institutional environment and unique interactions from diverse subsystems under one or more solid technological infrastructures [ 2 , 39 , 52 ]. This value network is mission oriented, formed to achieve innovation in a specific field that requires global participation (e.g.…”

“…The global innovation system is complex [ 15 , 52 ], as it operates as a complex self-organizing and adaptive system in conditions of uncertainty. It is evolving through various life cycle stages [ 55 , 62 , 66 ] and continues to operate on the basis of a specific technological infrastructure [ 2 , 39 , 52 ]. Finally, the global innovation system is flexible as it has multiple relationships from multiple subsystems to individuals and organizations in addition to systemic relationships with other global systems at lower levels (e.g.…”

Background Facing global grand challenges such as coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) require the participation of various actors in different sectors and systematically directing their innovative efforts. Considering the complexity, non-linear dynamics, and global extent of the COVID-19 challenge, developing and applying a multi-level, resilient, and systematic innovative framework is vital. Therefore, this study aims to apply the “innovation biosphere” framework inspired by ecological studies for examining and analysing the management dimensions of COVID-19. Methods In this research, based on a deductive-inductive approach, the case study methodology is used. In accordance with this strategy, the innovation biosphere metaphor is considered as the basic framework (deductive approach) and subsequently the grand challenge of COVID-19 (inductive approach) is analysed at three levels: micro, meso and macro. Results The research findings verify the correspondence between what happened in the management of COVID-19 and the proposed framework of innovation biosphere. In other words, the findings of the research show that the effect of global cooperation, role-playing and co-evolution of different actors and subsystems in facing the grand challenge of COVID-19 under an ecosystemic and eco-innovation approach has been evident. These events subsequently led to the cessation of the pandemic after about four years. Conclusions The main policy implications include the role of self-organization, the capability of global value networks, mission orientation, and co-evolution between actors as the contributions of innovation biosphere framework for managing grand health challenges, and global cohesion, oligopoly market, supporting local innovations, the critical role of basic research, and deregulation as the contributions of the COVID-19 case study for enhancing the innovation biosphere metaphor.

“…Moreover, despite the advances that have been made in smart grid technology, it is currently unlikely that clean energy-based electricity production will keep pace with the surge in consumption in the NEA (Li et al, 2022). In general, the capacity to develop, store, and transfer generated electricity still lag behind the demand in each country.…”

In recent decades, sustainable economic growth has caused an increase in energy consumption in North Asia, especially in China, Japan and South Korea. However, internal supply cannot meet energy demand, bringing two related consequences: First, the enlargement of the gap between production and consumption leads to dependence on external energy sources. Second, forcing the government to map its energy policy. However, unlike other regions such as the European Union and the Association of Southeast Asian nations, the dependence of the Energy of Northeast Asia has not caused the closest intra-regional cooperation. Conversely, in some cases, it damages cooperation and worsens non -constructive competition. Therefore, in this study, we aim to highlight the problematic relationship between energy securitization and regional energy cooperation in Northeast Asia and provide an analysis of the reasons, mechanisms and challenges for regional cooperation led by energy. In this case, we think that, by exploiting regional compatibility in the generation of renewable energy and in the consumer model, building a mechanism of integration and multimodal communication will promote greater integration and contribute to filling the gap between securitization and energy cooperation in the east and work the same in the east and working with Asia.
