Abstract: The aim of this paper is to explore the factors related to applications for innovative energy efficiency in supply chain management and provide understanding of community project awareness in relation to barriers for sustainable use of different energy types. This research employs exploratory interviews with experts to understand the applications of energy efficiency and to indicate factors that are considered important barriers to indicate community perceptions of awareness. The paper provides an overview of the field of energy supply chain and therefore will be of high value to top managers, policy makers and academics. It also shows how to understand factors of community awareness for efficient energy supply chain that results in cost savings and innovative effective supply operations.
