Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

The study investigates existing approaches of assessing energy efficiency of the transport and logistics infrastructure. It also shows the methodology for placing logistics facilities and analyzes the influence of market environment factors on the placement of logistics centers. The paper considers the problem of locating elements of the transport and logistics infrastructure as objects of energy and resource saving of cargo traffic. On the basis of taking into account the identified factors, a method of forming an energy efficient transport and logistics infrastructure is proposed.Keywords: transport and logistics infrastructure, efficiency, energy consumption, logistic approach.JEL Classifications: L91, Q40, R40DOI: https://doi.org/10.32479/ijeep.8204
