Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Energy efficiency is recognized as a cornerstone for industrial decarbonization, yet its uptake remains very limited in the manufacturing firms leading to energy efficiency gap. Whilst the low uptake of energy efficiency measures in industry is a well‐known issue, research has not sufficiently investigated the role of comprehensive factors in ...
