LTU solar home coming to Troy after Solar Decathlon

Lawrence Technological University's Solar Decathlon home has found a home after its turn on the National Mall in competition next month. Michele Hodges, president of the Troy Chamber of Commerce, said her organization has obtained federal funding to buy the home at the conclusion of the competition. It is to be delivered to Troy on Oct. 23 and re-assembled on the Troy Civic Center campus. It will then be used as a living laboratory of sustainable practices. Hodges said the city and chamber in Troy are also sending a delegation to Washington, D.C. for the competition.
