Our participation in the Solar Decathlon continues a long-standing legacy of MIT research into solar powered houses, beginning in 1938 when Godfrey Lowell Cabot gave MIT a gift to be used for the development of “the art of converting the energy of the sun to the use of man.” The endowment enabled the creation of MIT's Solar Energy Research Project, a 50-year effort involving the design and construction of six experimental or prototypical solar houses.
