| Abstract: | To avoid the risk of global warming energy conservation is becoming increasingly important. In small and medium-sized firms there are still many obstacles to using all profitable energy-saving investments and organizational measures. In a recent study detailed technical analysis in eight industries, as well as in-depth interviews and a broad telephone survey with firms, were carried out. As a conclusion, a bundle of activities is suggested to overcome the obstacles. Above all, they include the motivation of company managers, improved energy consultation, the use of multiplicator function of the association and a stronger engagement of the state and the utilities. |
