After several months of hard work and perseverance, we are pleased to announce that we have been accepted into the U.S. Department of Energy’s 2011 Solar Decathlon. Core members of the team enjoyed the first conference call with the Department of Energy and the other competitors last week, as well as the team selection of final competition lots on the national mall.

In the last month, there have been numerous other events of note, including a design review with Chief Charlie Weasel Head, Chief of the Blood Tribe, and Grand Chief of Treaty 7. The meeting was a great success, with promise of increased collaborative efforts between the student team and the community. Stay tuned for further updates!
