Student Team Win's October 5, 2002 A team of students from
the University of
Colorado at Boulder has won the Department of Energy's first-ever
"Solar
Decathlon." A multi-disciplinary team
of engineering, architecture, and other CU-Boulder students worked together
for over a year, designing and building a house whose entire energy
needs were met by solar energy. Once their house was built,
they had to disassemble it, transport it to Washington, DC, and reassemble
it on the National Mall. Once all of the solar houses were assembled,
they attracted over 100,000 visitors to the Solar Decathlon competition. The CU-Boulder team competed
against fourteen other universities from across the country, designing
a solar-powered house that was judged on ten different criteria:
PvH Communications is proud to have been a contributor to the CU-Boulder
