My research interest concerns industrial companies’ view on non-energy benefits and how industrial companies strategically work with energy issues such as energy management.

Energy as strategy

How can industry reach environmental targets and at the same time be competitive? Improved energy efficiency is a means that include both.

Non-energy benefits

My research concerns non-energy benefits from energy efficiency investments in the Swedish industry. These benefits are positive side-effect that can be delivered when investing in energy efficiency and some examples are improved productivity, reductions in operations and maintenance, improved work environment and less emissions and waste. Awareness of non-energy benefits is an important means to improve energy efficiency investment decisions.

Energy management

My research also concerns how the Swedish industry, in particular the Swedish pulp and paper industry, work with energy management. 

Ongoing projects

  • Non-energy benefits: Improved energy efficiency investment decisions – how to improve the strategic importance of energy efficiency investments in the Swedish industry? 
  • Energy management in the Swedish pulp and paper industry - barriers, drivers and general success factors.

Large positive secondary effects when industry saves energy

Improvements in energy efficiency in industry often give rise to large positive secondary effects. Even so, these added values are seldom given weight when considering whether to reduce energy consumption.
