“…Former articles have focused on defining elements as minimum requirements for establishing and operating energy management in general or an EnMS in particular (Abdelaziz et al, 2011;Ates & Durakbasa, 2012;Christoffersen et al, 2006;McKane et al, 2007;Thollander & Ottosson, 2010). Those elements are illustrated in Table 2, also distinguishing whether the elements are fully, partially or not considered within the analyzed articles.…”

“…These results clearly indicated that energy at that point in time was not a highly prioritized strategic issue, which is definitely surprising when taking into account the energy-intensive context of those industries. Ates and Durakbasa (2012), in their study of energy management practices in energyintensive industries in Turkey, also highlight the importance of a formal (written) energy strategy/energy policy. Nevertheless, only 40% of the surveyed Turkish companies indicated that they had already developed a formal energy policy.…”

Current research points to a large energy efficiency potential in industry which is still left unexploited. One of the most promising means of reducing energy consumption and related energy costs is implementing an energy management. This paper provides a systematic review of existing academic journal publications on energy management in industry. Five essential key elements of an energy management based on overarching themes are identified within the body of literature (strategy/planning, implementation/operation, controlling, organization and culture) and the specific findings relating to each key element are synthesized. Subsequently a conceptual framework of an energy management is developed which illustrates that a comprehensive approach is necessary in order to effectively exploit the existing energy efficiency potential. Finally implications for further research are described.

“…Namely, articles that have addressed EnM primarily in various manufacturing sectors, but included pulp and/or paper manufacturing industry among the studied industries were not considered in this systematic review as this systematic review is exploratory, where answers were searched for in all the scientific articles that have fulfilled the chosen search criteria. Hence, for example, the study by Jovanović et al [50], where the manufacture of paper and paper products was among the studied manufacturing sectors for EnM improvement, and the study by Ates and Durakbasa [51], where the paper industry was among the studied industries for the evaluation of corporate EnM practices, were not included in this systematic review. Some of the articles that primarily focused on other aims than EnM and/or EnM in PPI, possibly did not come up in the list because of not fulfilling the search criteria.…”

Drivers, Barriers, and Success Factors for Improving Energy Management in the Pulp and Paper Industry

Successful energy management is a way to achieve energy efficiency in the pulp and paper industry (PPI), which is important for assuring energy supply security, for increasing economic competitiveness, and for mitigating greenhouse gases. However, research shows that although energy use within PPI can be reduced by 5.5-19.4% per year, some of this by energy management practices, energy management is not always implemented. Why is this so? What are the barriers to, and drivers of implementation? How can the barriers be overcome? A systematic review of barriers and drivers in energy management in the PPI within peer-reviewed scientific articles suggests that the world-wide events that affect energy supply, volatility, and use seemingly also affect the number and frequency of research articles on energy management in the PPI. The perception of energy management in the PPI seems to be dominated by the understanding that it can mostly be achieved through technological improvements aiming to improve energy efficiency. The main driver of energy management was shown to be economic conditions: high and unstable energy prices, followed by drivers such as the need to remain internationally competitive, collaboration and energy management systems. Meanwhile, examples of the most important barriers are technical risks, lack of access to capital, lack of time and other priorities, and slim organization. The success factors for enhancing drivers and overcoming barriers were continuous energy accounting, energy-related collaboration, energy-efficiency programmes, and benchmarking. Altogether, success factors for energy management for improved energy efficiency could be summarized in the 4M framework-the "4M for energy efficiency": mind, measure, monitor, and manage-that could be used as the energy management memory-tool that could lead to improved energy efficiency in other sectors as well.

“…Na osnovu pregleda literature, može se zaključiti da veliki broj objavljenih radova u literaturi razmatra menadžment energije i energetsku efikasnost u različitim industrijama [1, 9,10,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25]. Neki od radova navode standard ISO 50001 kao referencu za uspostavljanje sistema menadžmenta energije.…”
