Abstract:
In a country, energy is an important resource to be considered for development of a Nation. The total country energy consumed determines the level of development of a Nation. Being the case, countries and organization should be provided with empirical evidence on how energy resources affect production output. However, in this area, little has been researched to explain the effect of energy resources on production output. Therefore, this paper aimed at determining the role of energy resource to production output in cement organizations. The study was conducted in Tanzania and used time series data for ten (10) years, from year 2005 to year 2014. In order to assess the effect of energy resource on production output, the study used multiple linear regression model to analyze the data. From the findings of the study, it was revealed that energy resources have positive and significant effect on production output in cement organizations. Being the case, cement organizations should consider energy resource as a key and an important resource in production of cement.
