Abstract:

Reducing dependence on fossil fuels, alleviating environmental impacts and ensuring sustainable economic growth are among the most promising aspects of utilizing renewable energy resources. Biomass is a major renewable energy resource that has the potential for creating sustainable energy systems that are critical in terms of social welfare. Utilization of biomass for bioenergy production is an efficient alternative for meeting rising energy demands, reducing greenhouse gas emissions and thus alleviating climate change. A supply chain for such an energy source is crucial for assisting deliverance of a competitive end product to end-user markets. Considering the existing constraints, a multi-objective mixed integer linear programming (MILP) model for biomass based sustainability energy supply chain was proposed in this study for economic, environmental and social performances optimization. Performance of the proposed modelling approach was demonstrated with a real life application study realized in İstanbul. Moreover sensitivity analyses were conducted which would serve as a foresight for efficient management of the supply chain as a whole.
