Energy efficiency and environmental issues have been largely neglected in logistics. In a traditional supply chain, the objective of improving energy efficiency is targeted at the level of single parts of the value making chain. Industry 4.0 technologies make it possible to build hyperconnected logistic solutions, where the objective of decreasing energy consumption and economic footprint is targeted at the global level. The problems of energy efficiency are especially relevant in first mile and last mile delivery logistics, where deliveries are composed of individual orders and each order must be picked up and delivered at different locations. Within the frame of this paper, the author describes a real-time scheduling optimization model focusing on energy efficiency of the operation. After a systematic literature review, this paper introduces a mathematical model of last mile delivery problems including scheduling and assignment problems. The objective of the model is to determine the optimal assignment and scheduling for each order so as to minimize energy consumption, which allows to improve energy efficiency. Next, a black hole optimization-based heuristic is described, whose performance is validated with different benchmark functions. The scenario analysis validates the model and evaluates its performance to increase energy efficiency in last mile logistics.

Electricity Saving

Since 2014, Taiwan has promoted a 1% annual electricity saving target to promote electrical efficiency efforts. As the industrial sector accounts for approximately 60% of the overall electricity consumption of Taiwan, this sector presents the greatest opportunity for improving Taiwan’s overall energy efficiency. Here, the energy audit data of industrial energy users are analyzed via logistic regression to understand the factors impacting their likelihood of achieving the targeted 1% electricity saving. Of the variables under study, the number of employees and the rank of the energy administrator were significantly correlated with the likelihood of reaching the electricity saving target. Within the management structure of the factory, energy users with higher-ranking energy administrators are more likely to achieve the targeted 1% electricity saving. As it is impractical to rapidly increase the number of employees, higher-ranking employees, i.e., factory executives, should be appointed as energy administrators to improve users’ electrical efficiency and thus reach the targeted 1% annual electricity saving. Based on the findings of our research, we put forward a point of view that in addition to the introduction of new technologies to improve energy efficiency, it can also be achieved through adjustments to the management structure of energy administration.

The work is devoted to the analysis of the peculiarities of determining the economic indicators of the feasibility of implementing measures to improve energy efficiency. In contrast to energy saving, which aims to reduce the consumption of energy resources, energy efficiency is a matter of appropriate energy consumption. That is, the use of less energy for the same level of supply of buildings or industries. The topic is relevant, because now energy prices are rising every year. At the same time, the International Energy Agency estimates an increase in total resource needs by 25% by 2040.  To achieve this goal, standard measures aimed at improving the energy efficiency of buildings, the effects of the implementation of these measures, a number of economic indicators, including PP, ARR, NPV, PI, BCR, SIR, MARR, IRR and DPP, were analyzed, evaluated and grouped. The focus was on the dynamic group of indicators due to the fact that their calculation involves the use of a discounting procedure. The general scheme of all dynamic indicators is the same and is based on forecasting costs and revenues for the planning period. The indicators of this group take into account changes in the value of money over time, which is neglected by the indicators of the static group. The most popular indicators are the calculation of net present value (NPV) and the definition of profitability index (PI). This work can be used to solve the problem of low energy efficiency and insufficient funding for the modernization of the building

Improved energy efficiency in supply chains can reduce both environmental impact and lifecycle costs, and thus becomes a competitive advantage in the work towards a sustainable global economy. Viewing the supply chain as a system provides the holistic perspective needed to avoid sub-optimal energy use. This article studies measures relating to technology and management that can increase energy efficiency in the supply chains of five aluminium products made in Sweden. Additionally, energy efficiency potentials related to the flows of material, energy, and knowledge between the actors in the supply chains are studied. Empirical data was collected using focus group interviews and one focus group per product was completed. The results show that there are several areas for potential energy efficiency improvement; for example, product design, communication and collaboration, transportation, and reduced material waste. Demands from other actors that can have direct or indirect effects on energy use in the supply chains were identified. Despite the fact that companies can save money through improved energy efficiency, demands from customers and the authorities would provide the additional incentives needed for companies to work harder to improve energy efficiency.

The buildings' energy consumption increasing requires solutions to improve their energy efficiency, thus reducing the electricity bill's associated costs. This paper aims to study the load profiles of a service building and its optimization to reduce the costs related to electricity consumption. The electrical load profiles are analyzed, and the electrical equipment and its consumption are characterized. Moreover, to increase energy efficiency and reduce energy costs, a renewable energy system based on photovoltaic panels is sized and integrated into the building. The analysis of the building's consumption profiles allowed the PV system's dimensioning to eliminate power peaks, enabling a reduction in the contracted power. The results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed solution, resulting in a reduction of the electricity bill.

Understanding energy consumption behaviours among households is an effective way to encourage energy conservation and improve energy efficiency. This article examines households’ knowledge, awareness, commitment, attitude, and behaviour towards electricity consumption. The sample of the study consists of 360 urban households in an intermediate city, Seremban. The findings reveal that cost-saving via government initiatives is a crucial factor influencing the households’ energy consumption knowledge. The correlation analysis also revealed that knowledge, awareness, commitment, and attitude correlated significantly with the households’ electricity consumption behaviour. The evidence suggests that the government and power companies implement strict regulations and technological advances to promote energy conservation and improve energy efficiency among households. The findings can better understand where attention should be directed and the measures for long-term energy conservation, climate change mitigation, and sustainable development.

Improving energy efficiency practices on ships is crucial for both economic and environmental purposes. Both technical and operational applications are made to increase energy efficiency on ships. The success of energy efficiency applications on ships depends on the effective work of seafarers. Therefore, awareness and knowledge about the energy efficiency of seafarers should be enough. The aim of the study is to determine the awareness and knowledge level of seafarers on energy efficiency on ships and to evaluate energy efficiency practices in maritime transportation companies from the perception of seafarers. In the study, the survey method was used. As a result of the survey, it was found that the knowledge level of the seafarers on ship energy efficiency was low, almost half of them did not receive energy efficiency training but they were informed about the importance of the issue. At the end of the study, it was evaluated that the awareness and knowledge level of officers should be increased in order to improve energy efficiency on ships and suggestions on this issue were determined.

Припортовый региональный электротехнический комплекс является инфраструктурой техноценологического типа. Ввиду энерговооружённости и значительной установленной электрической мощности приёмников электрической энергии его экономическая эффективность в большей степени обусловлена энергетической эффективностью. Одним из направлений повышения энергетической эффективности является энергосбережение, предполагающее выполнение энергетических обследований объектов и оценку потенциала энергосбережения. Практическая реализация потенциала энергосбережения, основанного на мероприятиях организационного характера, заключается в составлении и выполнении плана повышения энергоэффективности. Это предусматривает последовательное и постепенное, без технического перевооружения сокращение объектами своего электропотребления таким образом, чтобы к заданному времени достичь требуемых целевых показателей. Предлагается разработать методику составления плана повышения энергоэффективности, учитывающего техноценологические свойства припортового регионального электротехнического комплекса и обеспечивающего максимальную вероятность достижения цели. Теоретической основой данной методики является ранговый анализ и комбинаторная теория ранговой динамики, позволяющие на системном уровне описывать вероятностные закономерности электропотребления систем техноценологического типа. The portal regional electrotechnical complex is a technocenological type infrastructure. In view of the power supply and the significant installed electrical capacity of the receivers of electrical energy, its economic efficiency is largely due to energy efficiency. One of the directions for increasing energy efficiency is energy saving, which involves performing energy inspections of facilities and assessing the potential for energy saving. Practical implementation of the energy saving potential based on organizational measures is to draw up and implement a plan to improve energy efficiency. This provides for a consistent and gradual, without technical re-equipment, reduction of their electricity consumption by objects in such a way as to achieve the required target indicators by a given time. It is proposed to develop a methodology for drawing up a plan for increasing energy efficiency, taking into account the technocenological properties of the portal regional electrotechnical complex and ensuring the maximum probability of achieving the goal. The theoretical basis of this methodology is rank analysis and the combinatorial theory of rank dynamics, which allow describing the probabilistic patterns of power consumption of systems of technocenological type at the system level.
