· Provides actionable strategies to reduce energy consumption and minimize carbon emissions at power generation units.

· Offers practical approaches to achieving sustainable operations in industries.

· Uses Case studies reinforce key concepts, along with chapter summaries, keywords and review questions

· Illustrates concepts clearly using tables and figures

An engaging and practical resource for readers, this book would be ideal for students, researchers, and faculty in supply chain management, operations management, and industrial engineering at both graduate and research levels. It would also serve as a valuable resource for consultants and practitioners, providing insights into models and modeling systems to support better supply chain decisions.
