The shift factors of aggregate supply curve are:

Wages:
An increase in wages will decrease the short-run aggregate curve due
to the fact that producers will produce less at higher wage. Long-run
aggregate curve will not be affected due to rise in wages rate.
Technology:
An improvement in the manufacturing process will increase both the
short-run and long-run aggregate supply.
Energy Prices:
Increase in power and fuel rate will decrease the short-run aggregate
supply. But, long-run supply will not be affected due to rise in energy
prices.
