Need to bring the passion around decarbonization? Be re-invigorated to push the envelope in building science through the eyes of our students.  A collegiate competition shows how to foster innovation and creative approaches in the design to increase adoption of prefabricated design, energy efficiency, energy production, grid integration, and building operations, as well as overall functionality and appeal.  We also illustrate relevant education programs for teaching building science from the next generation to those wanting to learn more.  Finally, two students will share their design and process for achieving zero energy design in Atlanta in a case study format.
