    • 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 ...

    • Closing the Energy Efficiency Gap—A Systematic Review of Empirical Articles on Drivers to Energy Efficiency in Manufacturing firms 

      Solnørdal, Mette Talseth; Foss, Lene (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-02-28)
      Research has identified an extensive potential for energy efficiency within the manufacturing sector, which is responsible for a substantial share of global energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions. The purpose of this study is to enhance the knowledge of vital drivers for energy efficiency in this sector by providing a critical and systematic review of the empirical literature on drivers to ...

    • 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 ...

    • Firm internal drivers for eco-process innovation - A multi-method analysis of energy efficiency in Norwegian manufacturing firms 

      Solnørdal, Mette Talseth (Doctoral thesis; Doktorgradsavhandling, 2021-02-17)
      The high energy intensity of the manufacturing sector places it at the centre of all greenhouse gas emission abatement programmes. The thesis is thus motivated by the need to increase the environmental performance of the sector, and aims to explore the internal drivers in stimulating eco-process innovation in manufacturing firms. To this end, I use an explorative research design and explore the ...

    • From Program to Practice: Translating Energy Management in a Manufacturing Firm 

      Solnørdal, Mette Talseth; Nilsen, Elin Anita (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-12-03)
      A promising way to stimulate industrial energy efficiency is via energy management (EnM) practices. There is, however, limited knowledge on the implementation process of EnM in manufacturing firms. Aiming to fill this research gap, this study explores the implementation of a corporate environmental program in an incumbent firm and the ensuing emergence of EnM practices. Translation theory and the ...

    • Kommuner som pådrivere for kortreiste kretsløp. En studie om lokalmat i Tromsø kommune 

      Solnørdal, Mette Talseth; Pedersen, Sigve Ysland; Westskog, Hege (Research report; Forskningsrapport, 2022-10)
      Kortreist-prosjektet er et av underprosjektene i Include. Det startet opp i 2020 og varer fram til september 2023. Hensikten med Kortreist-prosjektet er å belyse hvilken betydning lokal mat og tilknyttede opplevelser har for stedsutvikling, og hvordan lokal mat kan inngå i kommuners klimaomstillingsstrategier.<p> <p>I denne studien har vi, i samarbeid med Tromsø kommune, utforsket hvordan ...
