- W4381618042 abstract "Choice of solar energy by manufacturing Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSME’s) has been associated with manufacturing sustainability. In this study, the Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) technique was employed to establish drivers for, and barriers to solar energy use by manufacturing MSME’s in selected districts in Morogoro region. The SEM results revealed three main drivers for manufacturing MSME’s use of solar energy for different purposes like manufacturing MSME’s intention to use solar energy, risk perception on solar energy use, and self-effectiveness perception. Also, the results indicated that there are several factors that hinder manufacturing MSME’s use of solar energy for different operations including the environmental concern (i.e., staff/employers’ concern about air pollution resulted from energy use, and staff/employers’ concern about climate change); solar energy awareness (i.e., experience in previous use of solar energy, and understanding of different types of solar PV which can be used at industry level), and lastly, solar energy generation cost (i.e., the generation of solar energy may cause additional cost, and solar energy requires high initial investment cost). Hence, the results of this study can be used by energy policymaking instruments to make informed decisions for renewable energy investment in the country’s manufacturing sector for manufacturing sustainability.
