This study investigates the determinant factors of technology adoption by connecting Technology Organizational Environment (TOE) with the dynamic capability factors. Using 518 respondents representing 222 business units of Indonesia's electricity company, the study found that only the absorptive capability has a positively significant effect on technology adoption.
