EMPOWERHOUSE Presentation
A presentation by the joint Parsons, Milano, Stevens Institute Solar Decathlon team in summation and celebration of their amazing work.
EMPOWERHOUSE is a community-based approach to building affordable, net-zero housing that addresses all aspects of domestic life.
Bringing the Empowerhouse beyond the National Mall’s Solar Decathlon Competitoin, the team is working with community partners, including Habitat for Humanity Washington D.C. and the D.C. Department of Housing and Community Development, to construct a second house in the D.C. neighborhood of Deanwood. After the Solar Decathlon, the two houses will be joined together to create a two-family home, and will be a model for affordable, net-zero housing that can be replicated around the globe.
