Abstract

This study incorporates consumer’s low carbon awareness (CLA) and demand forecasting into supply chains that adopt the cap-and-trade system. Three demand forecasting scenarios are discussed, namely, information sharing, full information sharing, and retailer-only forecasting. Strategies for pricing and reduction of equilibrium of carbon emission are derived. We also compare the decisions and profits in the three cases and present numerical analysis.
