Energy Land project examined ways to illustrate the energy expertise with the help of space solutions. The result was descriptions of intelligent multi-use environments where the energy technology was presented in an exciting way. Design methods and multisensory information technology were used in the development of space solutions. Multi-purpose environments were developed in a user-friendly way. It was thus necessary to fit different user needs in a coherent and interesting entity. The users of a cross-platform are companies, tourists, residents and educational institutions.
