Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Supply chain management is the base of any industry, and taking care of the environment during business is a social responsibility of any industry nowadays. As job creation is a primary issue for an industry, the entire supply chain system moves towards sustainability. The major goal of sustainable supply chain management is to make profit in terms of clean management. Reuse of products, recycling, remanufacturing, and waste management are socio-economic ways to contribute to environment protection. Remanufacturing boosts waste management by promoting the reuse of materials and products and decreasing the use of raw materials, the production cost, and finally landfill areas. The whole system needs flexibility regarding the production system, as manufacturers need to establish which products will be made from raw materials and which products will be remanufactured, according to the market demand.

The aim of the Special Issue entitled “Advanced production system under sustainable supply chain management” is to collect papers discussing the reduction of waste by using clean management with the help of advanced production systems under a sustainable supply chain management.

Traditionally, remote and urban communities worldwide have been supplied electricity almost completely by fossil fuel generators to accommodate for electricity needs. Currently, the integration of renewable energy sources (RESs) into the current power generation systems can offer attractive economic and environmental merits, including considerable fuel savings and carbon dioxide emission reductions. In relation to sustainability, efficiency and economic feasibility, solar photovoltaic (PV) is one of the most promising sources of RESs which is being touted as a leading solution to long-term electrification and development problems in rural and urban parts of Pacific Island Countries (PICs). In this work, a grid-tie PV system is instigated at a residential scale. The idea of this research is not to claim the power output from the PV system but to show the feasibility of a grid-tie system at a residential scale. This will help the PICs, non-profit organisations and the government better share scarce resources towards achieving their energy goals and be in line with Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 7, ensuring access to affordable, reliable, sustainable and modern energy for all.
