In addition to the focus on tomorrow’s leaders, the Solar Decathlon has a foundational goal of providing educational programs and opportunities for the general public.
The Solar Decathlon series of virtual sessions, with topics ranging from tours of houses with innovative designs to residential energy usage, are offered at no cost to the general public and cater specifically to current and prospective homeowners, members of the real-estate industry, educators, students and young professionals, home builders, renovation contractors, and others interested in viewing state-of-the-art homes.
