Abstract

Renewable Energy and Sustainable Supply Chain Management have been extensively studied over the last decade. However, techniques based on the modelling and simulations have not been applied extensively in the supply chain of renewable energy. The main purpose of this study is to identify the latest System Dynamics contributions and trends related to the supply chain of renewable energy. An overview of works published in several journals and related to the application of the System Dynamics approach in Renewable Energy Supply Chain (RESC) is provided. Only 10 papers focusing on the application of system dynamics in RESC were found and these were classified into three groups of analysis. Although the literature is scarce, this work shows the importance of system modelling considering: (i) improving the understanding of supply chain in renewable energy and (ii) developing modelling and simulation approaches in renewable energy systems. This paper represents a source for elaborating a System Dynamics framework applied on RESC and provides a comprehensive bibliography of papers published in the last decade.
