Carbon Trading and Supply Chain: A Critical Component of Sustainable Business Practices
The Growing Importance of Carbon Trading and Supply Chain Management


Aug 6, 2024The issue ofcarbonemissions is a critical global concern, and how to effectively reduce energy consumption and emissions is a challenge faced by the industrial sector, which is highly emphasized insupplychainmanagement. The complexity arises from the intricate coupling mechanism betweencarbontradingandordering. T he large-scale state space involved and various constraints make cost ...
Oct 21, 2025Wang et al. (2025a) discuss how thecarbonemissionstradingscheme can improve firms' financial constraints. Wang, Xu, and Chen (2024) state thatsupplychainfinance mechanisms, such ascarbontrade financing, can improve supplier-manufacturer performance, minimise emissions, and increase overall profitability.
Mar 1, 2025Therefore, this paper quantifies the risk ofcarbonprice fluctuation based on the statistical data of China'scarbontradingmarket, and adopts prospect theory to portray the investment risk preference of enterprises, and applies the evolutionary game model to analyse the dynamic evolution process of the two-level sustainablesupplychainsystem.
Furthermore, integratingcarbontradingintosupplychainoperations allows companies to adapt both ordering decisions and emissions, thereby enhancing operational eficiency. Then we highlight the pivotal role ofcarbonpricing in business contracts: rational pricing not only helps regu-latecarbonemissions but also reduces overall costs.
To achieve the goals ofcarbonpeak andcarbonneutrality, the low-carbontransformation (LCT) of high-carbonfirms is inevitable. We construct game models of asupplychainwith different dominant types under a mixedcarbonpolicy that embraces ...
Considering thecarbontradingmechanism and consumers' preference for low-carbonproducts, a game decision-making model for the low-carbone-commercesupplychain(LCE-SC) is constructed. The influences of commission andcarbontradingon the optimal decisions of LCE-SC are discussed and then verified through numerical analysis. On this basis, the influence ofcarbontradingon regional ...
The paper investigates the impacts ofcarbontradingprice and consumers' environmental awareness oncarbonemissions insupplychainunder the cap-and-trade system. Firstly, it analyzes the centralized decision structure and obtains the requirements to coordinatecarbonemissions reduction and order quantity insupplychain.
Motivated by diversecarbontradingpractices, we examine a two-stagesupplychaincomprising a manufacturer and a dominant retailer, both subject tocarboncap-and-trade policies. Our study focuses on scenarios in which retailers possess surpluscarboncredits, whereas manufacturers face shortages.
Apr 3, 2024The study explores emission reduction strategies, notably considering the manufacturer's capital limitations under cap-and-trade. Assuming the leading manufacturer holds surpluscarbonpermits and the upstream supplier experiences a shortage, we evaluate the dynamics ofcarbontradingwithin thesupplychain.
4 days agoFreight customers report that they frequently work independently to optimize theirsupplychainpractices, which can reduce energy demand and hence both emissions and costs. Examples of these practices include cargo consolidation, asset utilization, vessel efficiency, route optimization, and network optimization.

Mar 10, 2026Investors are integrating emissions performance into capital allocation decisions. And multinational buyers are embeddingcarbonmetrics intosupplychaingovernance. For African exporters, particularly in sectors such as cotton, textiles, and apparel; this development carries strategic implications.
In this project, we plan to developsupplychainandnetwork logistics optimization models to support decisions that take into account both cost andcarbonfootprint. These models can be used by individual firms to reduce their individualcarbonfootprints (or to adhere to restrictions oncarbonemissions) without compromising profitability.

For EU importers, the stakes are straightforward: legal obligation, financial exposure tied to the ETScarbonprice, and the operational challenge of gathering reliable data from potentially dozens of foreign suppliers.

While Net Zero advocates claim this transition will make European countries "energy sovereign," the opposite is true. They are effectivelytradingone dependency for another: moving away from fossil ...

To tackle this issue, considering a closed-loopsupplychain(CLSC) under trade-in scenarios within CATR framework, this study tries to explore the pricing strategies for three remanufacturing modes (autonomous, authorization, and outsourcing remanufacturing mode) by formulating three Stackelberg game models, facilitating to discover the best ...
Under the background of low-carboneconomy, in order to explore the internal mechanism of enterprises implementingcarbonemission reduction behavior, this paper uses evolutionary game theory and numerical simulation method to study the evolutionary stability strategy and its influencing factors ofcarbonemission reduction behavior ofsupplychainenterprises in a two-levelsupplychain...

Ascarbonpricing expands globally, these capabilities will become critical for maintaining competitiveness in international markets. By moving early and working collaboratively with suppliers, organizations can transform CBAM from a compliance burden into a strategic opportunity for cost reduction andsupplychaindecarbonization.
The importance ofsupplychainresilience has been underscored by recent global disruptions. Companies are diversifying their sourcing and logistics strategies, investing in digital tools for enhanced visibility and flexibility, to mitigate future risks and ensure operational robustness against global shocks .
