The money was more important than the size and location Explanation: ***que escapan con toda probabilidad a los imperativos de tamaño y localización geográfica***. "That probably were beyond the all important elements of size and location". The meaning seems to be that the technological options were selected based on considerations other than those of size and location. Since you mention the financial factor, it seems to me that the options selected by the industrialists focused more on the cost of replacement rather than on the real needs of plant size and location.
