The presented article investigates the effects of technical innovations in administrative buildings on the financial side of the business, with a main focus on reducing energy costs and energy consumption. The administrative buildings in a business contribute significantly to the business’s...

The sharp rise in electricity prices has led to a discussion on possible subsidies for companies in the form of an industrial power tariff. The subsidies should help companies remain internationally competitive and prevent them from relocating overseas. Although German electricity prices for...

Die stark gestiegenen Energiepreise haben zu einer breiten Diskussion über mögliche Entlastungen für Unternehmen in Form eines Industriestrompreises geführt. Damit sollen Unternehmen international wettbewerbsfähig bleiben und es soll eine Abwanderung ins Ausland verhindert werden....

The EU has become a leading protagonist of decarbonisation in the era of challenging international competitiveness. This research aims to investigate a relationship between energy costs pushed by decarbonisation (case of electricity) and the export competitiveness of EU countries. Within panel...

Fossile Brenn- und Kraftstoffe werden in Deutschland überwiegend importiert. Der Ausbau erneuerbarer Energien und Effizienzgewinne, die durch die Energiewende induziert werden, bringen einen verringerten Einsatz dieser fossilen Brenn- und Kraftstoffe mit sich. Ziel ist es, die Einsparungen...

We use plant-level data from the US Census of Manufacturers to study the short and long run effects of temperature on manufacturing activity. We document that temperature shocks significantly increase energy costs and lower the productivity of small manufacturing plants, while large plants are...

In energy-oriented lot-sizing and scheduling research, it is often assumed that minimizing energy costs automatically leads to an improvement of the ecological footprint of a company, i.e., lower carbon dioxide emissions. More precisely, a close to one (positive) correlation between energy costs...

Die Energieintensität eines Unternehmens ist abhängig von der konkret benutzen Kennzahl. Die Energiekosten als Anteil am Umsatz und die Energiekosten als Anteil an den Gesamtkosten sind ein betriebswirtschaftlich wichtiges Maß. Leider wird diese Messgröße stark von den Personal- und...

Environmental objectives of the EU and the widened energy price gap between the EU and the United States have recently given rise to concerns about the competitiveness of European manufacturing industries, particularly their energy-intensive branches. The study demonstrates that industrial...

This paper presents a method of estimating the energy expenditure of Italian manufacturing firms with 20 or more employees for the period 2003-11. Use is made of multiple sources in order to impute firm-level energy consumption in the dataset of the Bank of Italy�s Survey of Industrial and...

Energy costs are partly driven by environmental policy choices. In this paper, the effects of variations in energy costs – as measured by end-user electricity prices – on firm relocation decisions are investigated. Using a discrete choice model a nd a data base which has not previously been...

There is a large body of literature on green buildings, but few studies have focused on the motivation behind the construction of green buildings globally, and in South Africa in particular. This paper investigates the key drivers of green building in the Western Cape Construction Industry of...

This paper presents the need for capitalization of electricity production from renewable sources, as an alternative for the future, and the need to know and trace costs generated by this type of production. The paper follows three main objectives: to present general aspects of the theme in...

Energy security is becoming an increasingly important issue in the energy domain. However, from an economic point of view, many questions related to energy security are still unclear: from its definition and the costs associated to insecurity, to the design of policies intended to reduce it. In...
