AI-Enabled Sustainable Consumption and Production in Industry 5.0

The transition toward Industry 5.0 shifts from technology-centered industrial systems to human-centric, sustainable production. In this context, AI enables sustainable consumption and production by optimizing resource utilization, reducing waste, improving energy efficiency, and supporting circular economy practices across supply chains. Industry 5.0 integrates advanced AI technologies with human expertise to create smarter and more sustainable manufacturing processes. Through real-time data analytics, predictive maintenance, intelligent supply chain management, and demand forecasting, AI minimizes environmental impacts while enhancing operational performance and economic competitiveness. As industries face pressure to meet sustainability goals and global environmental standards, AI-enabled solutions may help balance economic growth with responsible resource management. AI-Enabled Sustainable Consumption and Production in Industry 5.0 examines how AI enables sustainable consumption and production within the emerging framework of Industry 5.0. It positions AI as a socio-technical and policy-driven enabler of sustainability, emphasizing human-centric innovation, ethical responsibility, and environmental stewardship. This book covers topics such as marketing and branding, supply chains, and waste reduction, and is a useful resource for business owners, engineers, academicians, researchers, and scientists.
