      Tor Olsen, technical advisor at this project, finds the project inspiring.

      – The hotel industry has much to gain from energy efficiency and can learn a lot from the project at Vestlia. We started with a preliminary project where we analyzed the hotel, focusing on which profitable energy measures could be implemented," explains Tor.
