“…SMEs play a key role in the transition with the high energy efficiency potential and in some countries a high share of final energy use. Historically, SMEs have been scarcely researched (Ramírez et al, 2005), but the field is now growing, e.g. ex-post evaluations of energy programmes (Fleiter et al, 2012a;Paramonova and Thollander, 2016b), barriers to and drivers for energy efficiency (Trianni et al, 2016;Cagno and Trianni, 2013), resource efficiency (Choi et al, 2019), life cycle approaches and sustainable manufacturing (Choi et al, 2018(Choi et al, , 2013.…”

The manufacturing industry is facing tougher competition which increases the demand to implement cost-effective energy efficiency measures. However, studies have indicated that obvious cost-efficient measures are not always undertaken. This is explained by the existence of barriers to energy efficiency. The aim of this study is to investigate the existence and importance of different barriers to the implementation of energy efficiency measures in the Swedish non-energy intensive manufacturing industry.Results from this study highlight a number of factors that inhibit the degree of implementation, such as the cost and risk associated with production disruptions, lack of time and other priorities, lack of sub-metering in larger organizations, etc. The study also finds a number of drivers, such as the existence of people with real ambition and a longterm energy strategy at site level.* Corresponding authors.
