Welcome to Adapthaus, the product of the Illinois Solar Decathlon, an interdisciplinary student organization at the UI, consisting of more than 60 students, which constructed this home as part of a design competition held by the U.S. Department of Energy. The result is this home that is a model of versatility, sustainability, and energy efficiency. From a solar panel array on the roof to a battery storage system to the highest efficiency products and materials, this all-electric home is expected to consume zero net energy during parts of the year with only negligible energy costs at any time. Special financing available for eligible buyers through Habitat for Humanity. The house must be sold to an eligible buyer who meets the following conditions: 1) owner-occupant; 2) at or below 60% of Area Median Income; 3) if home owner does not remain for 10 years, there will be repayment requirements per Habitat guidelines; 4) potential homeowner must go through pre-purchase and post-purchase coursework as part of the ownership process; and 5) Habitat for Humanity of Champaign County shall help ensure the homeowner gets access to DPP funding and other public grants available through the IL Housing Development Authority and area lenders. **See HD photo gallery and 3D virtual tour!**
