Abstract: Objective: The objective of this study is to examine the role of ISO 50001 as a structured energy management system within the field of green supply chain management (GSCM). More specifically, it aims to map the intellectual structure, thematic evolution, and research trends related to ISO 50001 and its contribution to sustainable supply chain practices. Theoretical Framework: This research is grounded in the theoretical foundations of green supply chain management, energy management systems, and sustainability-oriented organizational strategies. Core concepts related to energy efficiency, sustainable development, renewable energy integration, and organizational performance provide the conceptual basis for analyzing the literature on ISO 50001 and GSCM. Method: The study employs a bibliometric research design, utilizing a dataset of 422 peer-reviewed journal articles published between 2013 and 2024, indexed in the Scopus and Web of Science databases. Bibliometric performance indicators and science mapping techniques were applied to identify influential journals, authors, institutions, and countries, as well as to explore keyword co-occurrence patterns and thematic clusters shaping this research domain. Results and Discussion: The findings reveal a sustained growth in academic interest at the intersection of ISO 50001 and GSCM, reflecting the increasing strategic relevance of energy management within supply chain sustainability research. Dominant research themes primarily relate to energy efficiency, sustainable development, renewable energy adoption, and organizational performance. However, the analysis also highlights underexplored areas, particularly those associated with digital technologies, data-driven energy management, and the strategic integration of ISO 50001 into supply chain decision-making processes. Research Implications: The results provide both theoretical and managerial implications by clarifying how ISO 50001-based energy management systems support sustainability-oriented supply chain strategies and by offering insights for organizations seeking to improve environmental and competitive performance. Originality/Value: This study offers one of the first comprehensive bibliometric syntheses focusing specifically on the contribution of ISO 50001 to green supply chain management, positioning the standard as a strategic lever for embedding energy management into sustainable supply chain governance.
