Zusammenfassung: | A green balanced scorecard allows businesses to monitor their environmental progress and energy use, as well as quantify their achievements toward decreasing their ecological footprint. The scope of the current research is twofold: (i) to highlight the new sustainable profile of the Balanced Scorecard; and (ii) to investigate the contribution of the Sustainable Balanced Scorecard to the achievement of the energy efficiency and environmental goals of businesses. The present research study applies the rigorous bibliometric analysis technique and the PRISMA method for the years 2011–2023 to investigate the most popular research sources and documents, where the most frequently used keywords and research trends are utilized to answer the research question. In addition, findings from the network, content, and cluster analyses were visualized with the use of the bibliometric tools of Biblioshiny and VOSviewer. The results of the study indicate that businesses have made it a priority to build an energy-efficient management system based on the Sustainable Balanced Scorecard, which will help them achieve their organization’s environmental strategic goals. Moreover, a new era in the Sustainable Balanced Scorecard, that of the Contact Balanced Scorecard, has started emerging in the field. This article explains how the Sustainable Balanced Scorecard benefits organizations by enabling them to enhance their performance on both the economic and social fronts as well as the environmental front. Finally, by employing strategic evaluation methods like the Sustainable Balanced Scorecard to analyze organizations’ sustainability performance, the present study effort supports the sustainable growth of enterprises. |
