Adoption of energy-efficiency measures in SMEs—An empirical analysis based on energy audit data from Germany (2012, neutral): “Technical risk was found to impede the adoption of EEMs, among others, in Sorrell (2004), Rohdin et al. (2007), and Thollander and Ottosson(2008), in particular if EEMs are related to the core production processes of energy-intensive firms(Anderson, Newell 2004; Dieperink et al. 2003).”
Reducing industrial energy demand in the UK: A review of energy efficiency technologies and energy saving potential in selected sectors (2018, background): “The drivers to energy efficiency as defined by Thollander and Ottosson [184] are seen as factors that motivate or promote the adoption of energy-efficient and economically efficient decisions and behaviours.”

The characteristics of energy-efficiency measures – a neglected dimension (2012, background): “Their proper operation and process know-how are critical assets for the company and any intervention here often implies a cessation of continuously running processes (Thollander, Ottosson 2008).”
Barriers to energy efficiency improvement and decision-making behavior in Thai industry (2010, background): “This so-called efficiency gap is discussed in various studies (DeCanio 1998; Golove and Eto 1996; de Groot et al. 2001; Jaffe and Stavins 1994; Thollander and Ottosson 2008; Rohdin and Thollander 2006; Rohdin et al. 2007).”
Specific Energy Consumption/Use (SEC) in Energy Management for Improving Energy Efficiency in Industry: Meaning, Usage and Differences (2019, background): “In Sweden, for example, the annual gross electricity, which is a non-primary energy carrier, production Energies 2019 , 12 , 247 7 of 22 was calculated as the sum of annual electricity production from e.g., hydropower, nuclear power and imported electricity, minus exported electricity, and then divi”
Barriers to and driving forces for industrial energy efficiency improvements in African industries – a case study of Ghana's largest industrial area (2013, background): “As shown in literature, the nature of these barriers vary widely depending on the technology adopted, sectors and regional conditions (SPRU, 2000; Rohdin and Thollander, 2006; Thollander and Ottosson, 2008).”
Energy management practices in Swedish energy-intensive industries (2010, background): “Previous research has shown that barriers to energy efficiency in the studied sectors such as cost and risk of production disruptions, lack of access to capital/budget funding, lack of time and other priorities, other priorities for capital investments, slim organization, and lack of sub-metering, p”
Energy efficiency in energy-intensive industries—an evaluation of the Swedish voluntary agreement PFE (2012, background): “It also make requirements and provide tools for companies to overcome commonly cited barriers like “the lack of access to capital” and “the lack of time or other priorities” (Thollander and Ottosson, 2008).”
