Compliance quality improvement and carbon reduction strategies for a fuel vehicle supply chain based on the manufacturer's carbon social responsibility

Abstract

It investigates compliance quality improvement and carbon reduction in the fuel vehicle supply chain. In our model, a manufacturer with carbon social responsibility first determines the level of carbon reduction, vehicle fuel consumption reduction, and compliance quality improvement. Multiple retailers then select the level of marketing effort. The analysis of decentralized, cost‐sharing, and revenue‐sharing decisions shows that the ranking of carbon and fuel consumption reduction and compliance quality improvement under the three models depends on the parameters. Cost‐sharing and revenue‐sharing can improve the utility of supply chain members, but the sharing modes that they prefer are different.
