Abstract: In order to reduce the growing negative impact of CO2 emissions, manufacturing firms have begun to refocus efforts on energy management. Several studies have focused on drivers and inhibitors of energy management but few regarding manufacturing energy management maturity. This study investigates both drivers and the role of knowledge management on manufacturing energy management maturity. Using multivariate analyses, questionnaire data from manufacturing personnel throughout the United States is utilized to assess these relationships. The results provide the support that economic followed by organizational and corporate social responsibility (CSR) positively impact knowledge management practices within organizations. Additionally, this study provides support that knowledge management practices within U.S. manufacturing organizations have a positive association with environmental management maturity. Findings contribute to theory and practical knowledge by highlighting the configurational effects of knowledge management and energy management maturity.
