During the project phase of BRITA in Pubs 4 videos have been made mostly on the demonstration buildings. Besides the wind turbines on the roof of the City College in Plymouth, the Norwegian case studies Borgen Community Centre and the Church in Hol have been the focus of tv documentations on energy efficient retrofits.



The dissemination efforts of BRITA in Pubs include besides articles to journals, presentations at conferences and the two symposia on Ecobuildings also several tv footages or videos, which are presented on the website.

The wind turbines installed at the roof of the British demonstration building, the City College Plymouth, have been shown in two BBC tv footages. The footages include also an interview with the College’s representative Gilbert Snook.

During the last project year two other retrofitted demonstration buildings, the Community Centre in Borgen and the Church in Hol have been the focus of videos which were produced for Youris and Euronews. The project and the results of the energy saving measures are summarised and interviews with the project participants Jan Rolland (Asker Community) and Harald N. Rostvik (Sivilarkitekt and project manager at Hol) have been made.
