Applied Materials has a history of supporting the U.S. Department of Energy's Solar Decathlon, an award-winning program that challenges 20 collegiate teams to design, build, and operate solar-powered houses that are cost-effective, energy-efficient, and attractive. The winner of the competition is the team that best blends affordability, consumer appeal, and design excellence with optimal energy production and maximum efficiency.

As a leader in scaling green manufacturing, Applied Materials is pleased to sponsor this year's solar decathlon competition in Washington, D.C. and as founding partner to the launch of the first Solar Decathlon in China in 2013.

I applaud the efforts

I applaud the efforts taken in making solar energy a plausible alternative in practical ways, this is a great step forward in integrating science with real life applications. I wonder if we will have such competitions in Toronto, and whether we will get submissions that are of similar quality. I look forward to the day solar energy can be used in my house!
