Abstract

Photovoltaic (PV) systems have become a widely accepted method of harnessing solar energy in recent decades. In addition to the growing use of renewable energies are being used due to the depletion of fossil fuel supplies and the corresponding pollution generated by these non-renewable fuels. Since PV systems possess a limited lifespan, and are predicted to eventually become outdated, sustainability and recycling that should be incorporated into the structure of the solar system supply chain. The management of high and low moisture waste (H&LMW) is crucial due to its harmful environmental impacts, including sludge waste, carbon dioxide (CO2), and acid compounds. This study explores the integration of research on H&LMW and PV systems, focusing on energy generation from biogas, incineration power plants, and PV systems. In this respect, we propose a multi-objective mixed-integer programming model to construct a sustainable closed-loop renewable energy supply chain by considering forward and reverse flow through solar, biogas, and incineration power plants. Reducing CO2 with power-to-gas technology is thought to be an environmentally friendly approach. A novel fuzzy-random robust flexible programming approach based on Me measure is proposed, which overcomes the limitations of addressing the uncertainty of the parameters. Next, in order to solve the suggested multi-objective model, a novel strategy known as utility function based multi-choice conic goal programming is presented. A case study explores the sustainable challenges of a closed-loop renewable energy supply network in India’s renewable energy sector. The experimental results indicate that 9 candidate locations are selected for solar wafer production facilities, while 10, 9, and 15 locations are chosen for solar cell production, module manufacturing, and solar power plants, respectively. A sensitivity analysis reveals that the proportion of air pollution limitations possessively rises from 100% to 80% corresponding to the aggregate cost increases from INR 8021452 to INR 8056542.
