resilience, and agile closed-loop supply chain network design by considering renewable energy

This paper explores the integration of resilience, agility, and closed-loop practices within supply chain network design (scnd) while incorporating renewable energy sources. a novel resilience, and agile closed-loop supply chain network (raclscnd) concept is introduced, aiming to achieve sustainability and robustness in a circular economy. the literature review examines existing research on resilient scnd, closed-loop supply chains, and the role of renewable energy in these systems. the methodology proposes a robust stochastic optimization (rso) model that considers factors like renewable energy integration, facility location, capacity planning, and material flow optimization. numerical results demonstrate the effectiveness of the model in a case study from the home appliance industry. the model optimizes network design while minimizing carbon footprint and ensuring adaptability to demand fluctuations. the conclusion emphasizes the significance of raclscnd as a future-proof approach for sustainable and resilient supply chain management.
