Substantiation of the green approach in the formation of a sustainable system of ecological logistics

Abstract

Purpose. Development of a methodology for substantiating a green approach in the formation of a sustainable system of ecological logistics. Methodology. In the research process the following general scientific and applied research methods were used: correlation analysis was used to determine the relationship between 2 emissions and consumption of major energy sources; regression analysis to determine the main trends in 2 emissions for the main regions of the world; the methodology for calculating emissions from fuel combustion by road transport for assessing 2 emissions by various modes of transport; the improved methodology for assessing gas emissions and calculating the CO2 emission factor when forming a ring route during the transportation of goods. Findings. The work studies global trends in the dynamics of changes in carbon emissions by areas of activity. Trend forecasting models have been developed for changes in the dynamics of carbon emissions for the main industrial regions of the world. Using the correlation-regression analysis of the relationship between the increase in the dynamics of 2 emissions and the consumption of energy resources of the world in the context of the worlds major industrial regions, significant relationships were found between carbon emissions and the consumption of major energy sources. The work provides a methodological approach to determining the level of carbon emissions from vehicles and accounting for the carbon emission factor in the formation of logistics routes and tariffs for road transport in the context of the formation of sustainable systems of ecological logistics. As part of the methodological approach implementation, 2 emissions for road transport were estimated and calculations were performed for different types of cars. It was proposed to include the carbon emission factor in the calculation of the tariff for road transport, which will make it possible to form target funds at enterprises as part of the creation of a sustainable system of environmental logistics. Originality. The methodological approach has been substantiated to determining indicators of the sustainability of ecological logistics systems in the context of developing a methodology for calculating 2 emissions, which makes it possible to solve the problem of forming transport routes taking into account environmental requirements in the field of reducing 2 emissions by various modes of transport. Practical value. The proposed methodological approach to calculating emissions from fuel combustion by road, including the assessment of CO2 emissions and the calculation of the carbon emission factor when forming a ring route during the transportation of goods is recommended for use by scientists, specialists and practitioners in the field of green logistics.
