Partially constructed solar homes designed and built by teams from 20 leading universities from across the world were expected to arrive early this morning on the National Mall in Washington, D.C., where DOE’s third Solar Decathlon will be held from October 12th to 20th. The homes, which are powered and heated only with solar energy, will be judged in ten contests, including architecture, engineering, livability, lighting, cooking, comfort, water heating, appliances, and power generation for space heating and cooling.
