SOLAR DECATHLON TRANSFORMS CAPITOL MALL

The usual throngs of tourists at the capitol mall are turning their heads to view the frenetic activity as a street of solar houses rises between the capitol and the Washington Monument.   Teams of students are racing to erect solar dream houses in time for the starting date of October 12, 2007.

The
Solar Decathlon was conceived by the Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EERE) and its National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), which manages the event. DOE is also the primary sponsor of the event.
