During the one week period for judgment, the energy generated by the solar power system must sustain the daily life for 3 to 6 students in the competition and afford an indoor party with dinner for 8 competitors from other countries. The juries will give total scores considered by the architectural design, engineering and structure, solar power system, balance of power energy, industrial prospects, innovation, sustainability, and other 10 indexes.
This international competition aims to spread the application of renewable energy and to promote the industrialization of solar power construction. Our university was invited to enter this competition in September 2009, and built a team in October composed by supervisors, postgraduate and undergraduate students from various departments of architectural design, architectural environment and plant engineering, electronic and information engineering, engineering management, etc, to conceive and design this project.
The solar power bamboo house was started to build in Zhangwu Road campus on February 2, 2010.
