    • Absorptive capacity and energy efficiency in manufacturing firms – An empirical analysis in Norway 

      Solnørdal, Mette Talseth; Thyholdt, Sverre Braathen (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-07-02)
      Increased energy efficiency (EE) in manufacturing firms is important for confronting climate challenges. However, the information barrier is considered a major restriction on EE innovation. Building on the theory of absorptive capacity and the current EE literature, we argue that this barrier relates to firms' ability to assimilate and exploit information. Thus, this study's objective is to analyse ...

    • The Bumpy Road of Demand Growth—An Application to Atlantic Salmon 

      Brækkan, Eivind Hestvik; Thyholdt, Sverre Braathen (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2014-10-16)
      We measure demand growth for all salmon-importing regions of the world using an index approach for the 2002–2011 period. Our results demonstrate that there are substantial variations in demand growth by region and over time. Russia and Brazil exhibit the highest demand growth, with average annual growth rates of approximately 20%. More established markets, such as the United States and Japan, ...

    • Drivers for energy efficiency: an empirical analysis of Norwegian manufacturing firms 

      Solnørdal, Mette Talseth; Thyholdt, Sverre Braathen (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2017-08)
      Manufacturing firms’ ability to innovate and improve their energy efficiency (EE) is a key element in reducing emission of greenhouse gases (GHG) and attain international objectives of climate change mitigation. Despite an urgent need for more knowledge drivers for EE in manufacturing firms, there is still little research on the topic. Taking departure in the EE and environmental innovation literature ...

    • The importance of temperature in farmed salmon growth: regional growth functions for Norwegian farmed salmon 

      Thyholdt, Sverre Braathen (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2014-05-20)

    • Measuring inventory turnover efficiency using stochastic frontier analysis: building materials and hardware retail chains in Norway. 

      Breivik, Jørgen; Larsen, Nils Magne; Thyholdt, Sverre Braathen; Myrland, Øystein (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-08-26)
      Operational efficiency in the retail business is vital in order to be profitable in a competitive environment. This paper investigates how environmental factors, firm size and time trends are linked to inventory performance. We use location data, demographic data and 16 years of financial accounting data from small and medium-sized home improvement retailers to explain inventory performance at a ...
