Abstract

Investment in renewable energy sources by logistics companies has become commonplace. Organizations decide to invest in renewable energy sources not only for economic or environmental reasons, but because it is also prestigious for them. The aim of this article is to present the possible risk factors for a logistics company that uses or wants to implement renewable energy sources. This study identified individual risk factors and control mechanisms to reduce the likelihood of a particular risk factor occurring. In this article, the research methodology used is risk management through implementing a diagram of the risk-related decision-making processes of logistics companies around renewable energy sources. The analysis of the risk factors of renewable energy sources is an important element in assessing their effectiveness. By implementing the procedure of selecting an appropriate renewable energy source by logistic entities and implementing an element of risk management, there will be a significant positive impact on the optimal selection of a renewable energy source by enterprises.
