dc.description.abstractDespite the expected performance and associated cost savings of ISO 50001 Energy Management System Standard implementation, uptake of the standard has been slow in the Canadian industrial sector so far. This energy management gap can be explained by the presence of market failures and informational, organizational, economic and external market barriers, which are preventing optimal implementation rates from being achieved. Any programs, incentives or other factors that are employed to encourage uptake of the standard must focus on the drivers that are most relevant to the Canadian industrial sector specifically and be tailored to individual organization or sector needs. Relevant barriers and drivers for adoption of ISO 50001 in the Canadian industrial sector are presented and discussed in this research.
