BIRA produces numerous reports, papers, and presentations detailing the results of the research it performs. Many of these documents are published in magazine articles, professional journals and websites to share the knowledge gained on energy efficiency. Additionally, documents that overview BIRA projects are published by partners and government agencies. All of the publications serves as an effective tool to communicate the progress and future of the BIRA program.
