Investment in energy efficiency: do the characteristics of investments matter? (2012, background): “These findings meet those of the “alternative” literature on energy-efficiency investments, where the (absence of a) link between energy-efficiency investments and a company’s core business is often mentioned as a (negative) factor which plays an important role in the decision-making surrounding inv”
Adoption of energy-efficiency measures in SMEs—An empirical analysis based on energy audit data from Germany (2012, background): “As do Trianni and Cagno (2012), various econometric analyses of barriers(de Groot et al. 2001; Sardianou 2008; Schleich 2009; Velthuijsen 1993)also account for differences across industry sectors and highlight the importance of considering firm-specific factors.”
Energy management practices in Swedish energy-intensive industries (2010, background): “Research, however, has shown that despite the existence of cost-effective energy efficiency measures in industry, these are not always implemented due to various barriers to energy efficiency such as split incentives, principal-agent relationships, and information imperfections and asymmetries [4-7]”
Make it strategic! Financial investment logic is not enough (2011, background): “…as playing an important role: the (absence of a) link between an energy-efficiency investment and a company’s core business (de Groot et al. 2001; Harris et al. 2000; Parker et al. 2000; Sandberg and Söderström 2003; Sardianou 2008; Sorrell et al. 2000; Velthuijsen 1993; Weber 2000, 1997).”

Barriers to increasing energy efficiency: evidence from small-and medium-sized enterprises in China (2013, background): “For a more complete literature review on energy efficiency barriers, see Sorrell et al. (2004), Schleich and Gruber (2008), Sardianou (2008), Trianni and Cagno (2012) and Cagno et al. (2013).”
The characteristics of energy-efficiency measures – a neglected dimension (2012, background): “Empirical studies show that the lack of qualified employees might also prove a significant barrier to the adoption of EEMs (Sardianou 2008).”
