Renewable energy in sustainable supply chain: A review

In the search of sustainable process and products, ecofriendly policies have been developed over years, aiming at reducing environmental impacts as a step toward sustainability. Among impacts, alternatives to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions - GHG stand out due concerns with climate change. Then, development use renewable resources become relevant. Considering that supply chains are intense in energy consumption (since involves processes related supply, production, transport, consumption), it becomes relevant investigate if management chain considering energies their processes. Therefore, this paper aims mapping role context chain, analyzing literature published Web Science database WoS about subject. The main researchers, organizations, collaboration networks were presented, 21 most cited studies mapped paper. research was carried papers until 2019, using VantagePoint software handle information. findings show has growing, especially since 2010. Moreover, biomass, biofuels photovoltaic recurrent sources studied by papers. However, theme presented itself new there still potential be explored.
