Abstract

This study aims to develop a model for the closed-loop supply chain of photovoltaic (PV) systems. The primary objective addresses strategic and tactical decision-making using a two-stage approach. To pinpoint suitable locations for solar power plants, the PROMETHEE II method is utilized, which is a component of multi-attribute decision making (MADM) approaches. Next, a multi-objective modeling of the closed-loop PV supply chain is conducted. This model aims to minimize total supply chain costs, reduce environmental impacts, mitigate adverse social effects, maximize the on-time delivery (OTD) of manufactured products, and maximize market share. Additionally, a robust fuzzy mathematical model is introduced to examine the model’s sustainability under various uncertainties. An evaluation of the effectiveness and utility of this model is conducted in Tehran city. Furthermore, a comprehensive analysis of various supply chain costs indicates that production centers have the highest costs, while separation centers have the lowest costs.
