UTs Center for Sustainable Development in the School of Architecture is partnering with a variety of local organizations to build the worlds first affordable net-zero energy subdivision.
The center will work with the Austin Community Design and Development Center, the Guadalupe Neighborhood Development Corporation and the city of Austin to provide 90 or more homes for low- to moderate-income families. Equipped with solar-electric and solar-thermal energy, the homes will be completely carbon neutral.
