There is increased adoption of renewable energy, particularly photovoltaic (PV), as a major source of clean and environmentally friendly energy. With the wide application of PV technologies, commonly called solar panels, their appropriate maintenance and cleaning are vital for optimum PV energy generation. The research focuses on exploring the various factors attributed to influence the want, intention and need to use PV panel cleaning robots in Thailand from an institutional management perspective. The study adopted the extended C-TAM-TPB by adding three more variables - Trust in technology, awareness of renewable energy, and environmental concern. A quantitative approach was used, where primary data was collected from PV institutional users. A population sample of 411 respondents was used. The confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) came in handy in evaluating the performance model, with the study's hypotheses being evaluated by the structural equation modeling (SEM). Results indicated that most of the subjective behaviors, perceived behavioral controls, and trust in technology played a key role in determining the intention and need to use solar panel cleaning robots. Perceived usefulness was found to have significant influence towards PV panel adoption. The influence of attitude was mediated by several factors – environmental concern, renewable energy awareness, trust in technology. The study recommended that the institutional users of solar panels should consider investing in knowledge regarding perceived behavioral control, developing confidence in the use of renewable and sustainable energy, and developing trust of the renewable and sustainable energy technologies. This could be achieved through programs such as public awareness, sharing accurate information regarding solar panel cleaning robots, and providing support and after sales support. Educational initiatives to change users' attitudes toward renewable energy technologies were recommended.

Service quality plays an important role in the enhancement of the satisfaction level of customers or consumers and the financial performance of business organizations. Customers expect excellence in service quality and the gap between the expectations and availability of the services determines the level of the service quality of the business organizations. The primary objective of the study is to measure the service quality of Saudi Arabian banks. An online questionnaire containing SERVQUAL dimensions was administered, and responses were analyzed by applying the F test two sample variances, and rank correlation. Financial information extracted from the selected Saudi Arabian banks for the period 2018 to 2022 and ROA (return on assets) and ROE (return on equity) were calculated to get the financial performance. The combined study of rank analysis of financial variables and SERQUAL variables indicates that financial performance is positively and moderately governed by the Tangibility, Assurance, and Empathy dimensions of service. Overall, the expectations of the bank clients are higher than the availability of services in Saudi Arabian banks. There is a need to improve the Reliability and Responsiveness to enhance the level of service quality in Saudi Arabian banks.

The purpose of the present paper was to explore whether total quality management (TQM) mediated the influence of market orientation (MO) on organizational performance (OP). The study was conducted using a quantitative way of investigation with the help of the survey instrument as the primary tool for data collection. Firm ICT managers completed the survey, and the data collected was used to explore the pathways proposed. After having been collected, the data were screened using the SPSS 26 version, and the hypothesized correlations were tested using the same data. The results indicate that both MO and TQM had significant impacts on OP. Such a connection was also impacted by the implementation of TQM. The information and communication technology (ICT) industry is popular among developing countries and is considered as one of the most employers and tools that fasten economic progress. The results provide new insights into the relationships and impacts of MO and TQM on organizational performance to owners/managers, practitioners, and academicians in the ICT sector. The owners and managers can serve as the guidelines to make better decisions in implementing MO with TQM standards to outperform in all aspects and sustain market competition. The owners and managers are advised to develop better strategies to adopt MO and TQM plans into more effective and performance-oriented approaches. This study is the first to do empirical research on the connections between overall quality management, market orientation, and organizational performance in the ICT sector of an Arab developing country.
