Abstract

This paper explores a two-level prefabricated building closed-loop supply chain (CLSC) comprising a retailer and a prefabricated building manufacturer (PBM) under carbon cap-and-trade legislation and the government subsidies of carbon emission reduction (CER). In this CLSC, the PBM and the retailer recycle used products through their independent recycling channels. The optimum pricing and CER strategies within both decentralized and centralized systems, respectively, are analyzed. The Stackelberg game is used in the decentralized system to determine the optimum PBM’s CER level and the retailer’s pricing. By analysis, it concludes that increasing the carbon trading price can stimulate prefabricated construction corporations to improve their CER level, and that the government subsidy rate has a great effect on the profits of the PBM. Numerical examples with sensitivity analysis are used to further evaluate the roles of important factors in the optimum CER and pricing solutions of the prefabricated building CLSC in two dissimilar systems.
