Abstract

This study explores the improvement of sustainable energy distribution in the USA through the application of the Theory of Constraints’ Thinking Process Tools. The research adopts a mixed-methods approach, combining quantitative analysis of energy production, consumption, and transmission data with qualitative analysis of stakeholder perspectives and regulatory frameworks. The findings reveal key challenges, including infrastructure bottlenecks, regulatory barriers, and coordination issues among stakeholders. Through the application of the Theory of Constraints’ tools, targeted strategies are developed to address these constraints and enhance the efficiency, reliability, and sustainability of the energy distribution system. Recommendations are provided to invest in infrastructure upgrades, streamline regulatory processes, foster stakeholder collaboration, prioritize research and innovation, and promote public awareness and engagement. By implementing these recommendations, stakeholders can work together to overcome existing challenges and accelerate the transition towards a more sustainable energy future in the USA.
