High energy costs and hospital financial solvency have become significant problems for hospitals and community leaders. Hospital managers are concerned with knowing the best uses of renewable energy technology to reduce energy expenditures effectively. Grounded in the diffusion of innovation theory, the purpose of this qualitative pragmatic inquiry study was to explore the strategies hospital leaders use to reduce costs using renewable energy technology effectively. The participants were eight hospital managers from four large and four small hospitals in North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany. Data were collected using semi-structured interviews and a review of relevant public records, documents, and literature on renewable energy technology. The data were analyzed using Yin's five-step thematic analysis process, and the following themes emerged: technology involvement, government policy impacts, and energy management concerns. A key recommendation is that hospital managers use photovoltaics to reduce energy use and costs. The implications for positive social change include the potential for other hospital administrators in Germany to use technology to reduce energy costs, improve hospital finances, and offer their patients more cost-effective and better health care services.
