(BE), a growing company in the renewable energy sector that is known for its pellet production. The project used advanced simulation software, FlexSim, to improve the efficiency of pellet production and the effectiveness of its logistics capacity to customers. Through detailed simulations, the research replicated complex real-life processes in a controlled and cost-effective simulated environment, allowing for a thorough examination of the facility's operational dynamics. The analysis identified significant bottlenecks, interruptions in workflow, and issues in capacity utilization, pinpointing the critical factors that influence overall system performance. By evaluating a range of production configurations, the research established optimal workflow management strategies aimed at maximizing production throughput. Furthermore, this study explored how strategic adjustments in the production line setup and logistics could significantly reduce operational costs and improve customer satisfaction, ultimately contributing to a more sustainable business model. This paper presents a detailed narrative on the use of simulation techniques to refine production and logistics operations, enhancing operational efficiency and service quality in the renewable energy industry. © 2024 IEEE.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessCost ReductionFlexsim Simulation SoftwareLogistic OptimizationOperational EfficiencyProduction OptimizationFrom Sawdust To Shipment: Leveraging Flexsim Simulation Models To Optimize Pallet Production OperationsConference Object10.1109/ASYU62119.2024.107569692-s2.0-85213303076N/AN/A
