Middlebury College is competing this year at the US Department of Energy’s Solar Decathlon, an award-winning program that challenges collegiate teams to design, build, and operate solar-powered houses that are cost-effective, energy-efficient, and attractive. Since 2002, the Solar Decathlon has engaged 112 college teams in a multidisciplinary approach to designing and building solar technologies, involved 10,000 students in global competitions, and educated the public about clean energy solutions.
