“…Although the implementation of certification is rare, firms with the certification report a positive impact on energy aspects. Besides, it is an excellent complement to ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 (Zimon et al ., 2021).…”

“…Reducing material consumption, reducing the energy used to manufacture and reducing water consumption in the manufacturing process are the three primary aspects used to determine whether a system is Green. Thus, reducing the consumption of these three Green aspects allows the organisation to reduce its environmental impact (Zimon et al ., 2021; Elshkaki, 2019; ISO, 2015; Green et al ., 2012; Smith and Ball, 2012). Additionally, a manufacturing system certified with ISO 14001 and ISO 50001 proves the organisation develops specific activities to reduce its environmental impact and increase energy efficiency.…”

PurposeExploring the Lean and Green relationship goes back to the beginnings of Lean manufacturing. Most cases established that companies implementing Lean have Green results. However, there are Lean practices with a higher impact on Green, but others with less impact. Therefore, this paper presents research that explores the relationship between Lean and Green in manufacturing companies and aims to determine whether Lean practices have a higher association with Green aspects.Design/methodology/approachA survey was conducted amongst manufacturing firms to determine their Lean Index (LI). The internally related elements of the Lean construct determined each firm’s LI, whilst Cronbach alpha determined internal LI consistency. The survey also identified firms developing six Green aspects: International Organisation for Standardisation (ISO) 14001, ISO 50001, general Green aspects and the specific aspects of materials, energy and water. An individual sample t-test shows different LI levels of association for each Green aspect. Binomial logistic regression shows the LI element association for each Green aspect.FindingsLI is higher at firms reporting the inclusion of Green aspects. More than half of LI components have a statistically relevant association with the six Green aspects. In general, Ishikawa diagrams had the highest association with Green aspects whilst the lowest was seen in workers as improvement initiators. By grouping the LI elements into their categories, the Lean practices related to controlling processes have a higher association, whilst the involvement of employees has the lowest.Research limitations/implicationsFurther research found in this paper identifies the possibilities for investigating the specificities of each Lean tool to develop Green aspects in companies.Practical implicationsPractitioners learn that Lean and Green are not separate issues in business. This article provides evidence that Lean practices in place at companies are already associated with Green aspects, so integration may already be happening.Originality/valueThis paper provides specifics on the relationship between each Lean practice and developing Green aspects. Thus, this paper specifies the Lean practices that contribute most to Green efficiency to support the joint development of both themes.

“…There are many studies about EnMS based on the ISO 50001 standard in industrial sectors, such as on energy performance improvement after the implementation of the ISO 50001 standard; CO 2 reduction [41]; the improvement of processes in supply chains [42] in the plastic industry [43]; and energy savings in the food industry [44], in kraft pulp mills [45], in the dairy industry [46], in cement industries [47][48][49][50] and in energy-intensive industries [51].…”

Energy Management Model for Sustainable Development in Hotels within WB6

2022

The aim of this paper is to propose a model for an energy management system (EnMS) in the hospitality industry in line with the ISO 50001 standard. The new proposed model, specifically developed for service organizations, was based on the Plan–Do–Check–Act cycle and was confirmed in 280 hotels in the Western Balkans 6 (WB6) region. The data were used to investigate if hotel properties represent an influential factor in the wider implementation of EnMS requirements. The proposed model, based on the ISO 50001 standard, was developed into sub-categories, including actual regulations and legislation within the EU and WB6. Hotels, as some of the most energy-demanding buildings, due to their purpose and processes, should provide their guests with electricity, hot water, heating and air-conditioning every hour of every day. The survey was conducted in 280 hotels and lasted from December 2021 to September 2022. The research shows that the average implementation of EnMS requirements was 38.07% for the whole researched sample, i.e., 25.86% in Albania, 30.40% in Bosnia and Herzegovina, 26.11% in Kosovo, 46.34% in Montenegro, 29.86% in North Macedonia and 44.56% in Serbia. In the researched case study, the average implementation of the PLAN phase (phase for establishing basics for energy management) was 35.71%, implementation of the DO phase (phase for implementing energy management processes) was 44.90%, implementation of the CHECK phase (phase for monitoring and the measurement of energy performance) was 45.45%, and finally, implementation of the ACT phase (phase for reviewing and improving energy management) was only 25.36%. The proposed model is significant as it can be used for broader research to investigate other business sectors in hospitality and for policymakers to propose energy consumption strategies and measures for energy savings that would have a minimal impact on service quality. The novelty of this research can be seen not only in the specifically developed model for service organizations in the hospitality sector but it also contains current data from the verified model in one specific region which offers the possibility of benchmarking and evaluating one’s own organization.

“…Only 40-50% of Swedish energy-intensive industries could be described as successful when it comes to energy management [18]. There are also studies related to energy management systems, e.g., Zimon et al investigated the impact of implementing ISO 50001 requirements on performance of sustainable supply chain management [37], and Gopalakrishnan at al. developed a standard methodology of using a flow chart and software to facilitate using ISO 50001 in companies [38].…”

Barriers to and Drivers of Energy Management in Swedish SMEs

et al. 2021

The energy efficiency gap is known as the difference between optimal level of energy efficiency and the actual level of achieved energy efficiency. Energy management has proven to further close the energy efficiency gap. Energy management may differ depending on whether it concerns a large, energy-intensive company or small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). SMEs are of high interest since they form a large share of the economy today. For SMEs, a lighter form of energy management, in the form of energy efficiency network participation, has proven to deliver sound energy efficiency impact, while for larger, energy-intensive firms, a certified energy management system may be more suitable. However, various barriers inhibit adoption of energy efficiency measures. While there is an array of research on barriers to and driving forces for energy efficiency in general, research on barriers to, and driving forces for, energy management is rare, one exception being a study of energy-intensive pulp and paper mills. This holds even more so for industrial SMEs. This paper aims to identify the barriers to, and drivers for, energy management in manufacturing SMEs. Results of this explorative study show that the top four barriers to energy management are lack of time/other priorities, non-energy-related working tasks are prioritized higher, slim organization, and lack of internal expert competences, i.e., mainly organizational barriers. The top four drivers for energy management are to reduce production waste, participation in energy efficiency networks, cost reduction from lower energy use, and commitment from top management. Furthermore, results show that energy management among the studied SMEs seems to not be as mature, even though the companies participated in an energy management capacity building program in the form of energy efficiency networks, which, in turn, shows a still largely untapped potential in the societal aim to reduce the energy efficiency and management gaps. The main contribution of this paper is a first novel attempt to explore barriers to, and drivers for, energy management among SMEs.
