The general aim of the retrofits at the demonstration buildings is to reduce the primary energy demand for heating, ventilation, cooling and domestic hot water by factor 2 and at the same time to improve the user satisfaction by also factor 2. The latter is analysed by user comfort questionnaires. All buildings will be monitored for at least one year. The first results, mainly for the buildings Proevehallen, Borgen and University Vilnius showed that the expected energy savings have been realised (see also the respective news at the project website).

The demonstration projects have their own national and international dissemination results, for example the Community Centre in Borgen had Chinese visitors and the wind generators in Plymouth have been presented in TV footage by both, the BBC and the local commercial television (see project website for the videos).
