Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The need to mitigate the negative impact of production and logistics processes on the environment makes energy efficiency one of the key factors of sustainable management. Enterprises and supply chains must, therefore, look for solutions that optimize energy consumption. It should be emphasized that rational energy management in enterprises cannot be incidental, one-off, but should be a systemic process.
Investments affecting the rationalization of energy consumption can cause positive effects both at the level of an individual organization, guaranteeing its reduction of costs and improvement of the company's image, and also on a larger scale, potentially important at the national level, contributing to an increase of competitiveness in entire supply chains.
Considering the above, this Special Issue is looking for outstanding research and development results, case studies, and review papers in topics that include but are not limited to the following:
- Energy management;
- Sustainable energy systems;
- ISO 50001, ISO 14001, ISO 9001;
- Energy management systems in SCM;
- Improvement energy efficiency in SCM and logistics.
